It's just like the GOP to pretend they care about one group, while denying rights to another. They apparently love the unborn fetus, but the mother's life, or even the life of the baby when born is of no concern to them.
And here Gohmert wants to ostensibly protect the woman in a public restroom, who has been traumatized by rape, on the off chance that such a woman is in there and sees a transgender whose biological sex is male, but whose gender is female--and that seeing such a person in passing, in a public restroom, will trigger her ptsd.
I'd like to point that the GOP is not that big on feelings. They flaunt this repeatedly. But here, suddenly, Gohmert has total empathy with rape victims, and imagines what it be like to be one, and how badly he would suffer (if he had such ptsd), if he happened to be a female rape victim, and see a transgender in the public restroom.
These conservatives don't care. Period. They don't care about the fetus. They just want to deny women their rights. They don't care at all about ptsd or rape. If they cared about rape, then they would be okay with abortions in the case of rape. They just want to deny transgenders their rights.
