This should be seen as a call for cis people to talk to the cis people in your life about us
Honestly, what even is Trump’s stance on transgender “issues”? Seems like the only trans people he is aware of is trans women. And his message has literally all the nuance and complexity of “trans women bad”. I’d honestly be surprised if even half of Americans have met or known a trans person.
some of these statistics bum me out. do these people really have nothing to worry about in their own lives?
They hate who they’re told to hate.
I think maybe we all do.
A message from the great white north: get fucked Americans.
We are.
Id love to be not here, never particularly wanted to be here to begin with. Wish i had made moves to leave much sooner. I pretty much expected this result for most of the year before the election, just from my interactions with other people
Finally got around to watching season 4 of The Boys today and that was not good for my mental health. Fucking hell the parallels to whats actively happening…
As an American I share your “get fucked” sentiment in regards to the general populace, just don’t forget the other near half who are vehemently against all this.
The other half isn’t vehement. They don’t care or think it’s not very nice, and a small part is vehement.
If we get too vehement the police will execute us in the street, and this country isn’t worth dying for.
Keep us at arm’s length, stay friends with everybody else, and enjoy watching the US burn to the ground. Hopefully the next tenants will do better.
It’s not really about dying for the country, but for the victims.
More than half of Americans should’ve turned off the corporate news and galvanized against Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
You misspelled 2016

Interviews for this survey were conducted between May 1 through May 5, 2025, with adults aged 18 and over representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Panel members were randomly drawn from AmeriSpeak, and 1,175 completed the survey—1,101 via the web and 74 by telephone.
Panel members were invited by email or by phone from an NORC telephone interviewer. Interviews were conducted in both English and Spanish, depending on respondent preference. Respondents were offered a small monetary incentive for completing the survey.
The final stage completion rate is 13.7 percent, the weighted household panel response rate is 26.1 percent, and the weighted household panel retention rate is 77.8 percent, for a cumulative response rate of 2.8 percent.
The overall margin of sampling error is +/- 4.0 percentage points at the 95 percent confidence level, including the design effect. The margin of sampling error may be higher for subgroups. For example, the margin of sampling error is 6.1 percentage points for Democrats and 6.3 percentage points for Republicans and 9.8 percentage points for independents. Sampling error is only one of many potential sources of error and there may be other unmeasured error in this or any other survey.
The number, whatever it is, is still too high but I doubt the claim of “half of adults over 18” is accurate.
We all know the types willing to complete phone surveys … this poll is a joke.
6-10% sampling error, taboot? All the sudden, it could be “majority of Americans support trans people” as the headline.
Surveys like these do often have implicit bias, because only a small portion of people would be willing to take them when offered. For instance, phone surveys dramatically overrepresent Republicans because almost all the people who choose to complete them are quite old. Additionally, people with more extreme views are more likely to complete political surveys than people with moderate views, especially those who aren’t very interested in politics. These are all biases that are difficult to account for.
Half of Americans are morons whose opinion doesn’t matter.
It matters when they vote in a wanna-be monarch
I strongly doubt that statistic. Straight, white, cis, Aussie, male.
Why? Slightly more than half of voting Americans back him.
They don’t actually, neither candidate got over 50% of the popular vote last election
voting Americans
Only 28% of eligible voters actually voted for him.

Are you saying that you’re on team Trump regarding trans issues?
First of all, no, they don’t. Second, this was about HIS STANCE ON TRANS ISSUES, which i gotta (X). His stance on anything is just plagiarized from the last person he talked to.
I don’t believe in polls but I honestly feel like it’s more than half irl
