They Them Trans Vph Ad

wiki 4 25

"Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you" was a political advertisement commissioned by U.S. Republican party nominee Donald Trump's campaign to attack Kamala Harris during the 2024 United States presidential election.[1][2] The ad features excerpts from an interview that Harris gave to National Center for Transgender Equality Action Fund's Mara Keisling, where Harris supported tax-funded gender-affirming surgery for prisoners.[2] The ad's kicker was "Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you."[3]

:{:{The ads, which had several different variations, aired more than 30,000 times in every swing state.[2] The Trump campaign put the ads in heavy rotation during televised NFL and college football games and NASCAR Xfinity Series races.[4][5] }:

According to an analysis by Future Forward, a Democratic super PAC, "Kamala is for they/them" was one of Trump's most effective 30-second attack ads, shifting the race 2.7 percentage points in favor of Trump after viewers watched it.[6] Conversely, a study by Ground Media released by GLAAD, an LGBTQ media monitoring organization, alleged that the ad did not have an impact on who viewers intended to vote for.[7][8]}:

Background

During Harris's 2020 Democratic Party presidential primary run, Harris had expressed the importance of trans rights. Harris discussed her history with trans rights with Keisling, stating, "I can't remember a time where they have not been important to me. When I was district attorney of San Francisco, I started ... assistance program for members of the trans community." The murder of Gwen Araujo led to Harris organizing a training session to help prosecutors defeat the trans panic or gay panic defense.[9]

The impetus for Harris's support for tax-funded transitions stems from the 2015 settlement between the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and Shiloh Quine.[9][10] Harris stated: "I worked behind the scenes to not only make sure that transgender woman got the services she was deserving..." Quine had been behind bars since 1981, convicted of first-degree murder, kidnapping and robbery for ransom for the kidnap and murder of 33-year-old Shahid Ali Baig.[11]

Harris pushed for further change within the California prison system, noting that she "...made sure they changed the policy in the state of California, so every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access to the medical care that they desired and needed..." Harris stated she felt strongly about the issue, saying, "... it's a civil rights issue, it's a justice issue, and it's an issue of humanity."[9]

Trump had previously voiced his opposition to transgender women competing in women's sports and gender-affirming services for minors.[12] His conservative allies stated that the issues can sway undecided voters, saying "Democrats had grown increasingly uneasy defending their support of pro-transgender policies around athletics and children."[12] Conversely, Democrats largely avoided discussing transgender issues during the election campaign period.[13][14][15]

According to a CBS News report, the Trump campaign paid $19 million to air the ad nearly 55,000 times between October 1 and 16, 2024.[16] The ads, which have several different variations, aired more than 30,000 times in every swing state.[2] The Trump campaign put the ads in heavy rotation during televised NFL and college football games.[4][5]

Reception and analysis

According to an analysis by the Democratic super PAC Future Forward, "Kamala is for they/them" was one of Trump's most effective 30-second attack ads, shifting the race 2.7 percentage points in favor of Trump after viewers watched it.[6] According to polling by the Trump campaign, the commercial resonated with suburban women. This demographic had been a key factor in Joe Biden's 2020 victory over Trump.[17]

A different study, done by Ground Media and released by GLAAD, did not show that the ad which contained the slogan impacting who viewers intended to vote for. However, the study also showed that public acceptance of trans people decreased by around 3-4 percentage points among those who watched the ad.[7][8] In the aftermath of the election, Keisling told Semafor that the ads had negative ramifications for transgender people, especially for trans children and their families.[18]

Democrats did not formally respond to the ads containing the slogan during the campaign period. Former President Bill Clinton privately expressed concern about the ad and encouraged the Harris campaign to respond to it saying, "We have to answer it and say we won't do it." The Harris campaign had originally planned to release an ad responding, but the ad ended up performing poorly in internal tests and was ultimately never run.[6]

In early October, podcast host Charlamagne tha God commended the ad for its effectiveness during a segment of The Breakfast Club,[4] saying, "Hell no, I don't want my taxpayer dollars going to that."[19] The Trump campaign then clipped his remarks and added them to another round of ads against his consent. Charlamagne issued a cease and desist order, demanding Trump cut him out of his campaign ad.[20]

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie also praised the commercial. "The most effective ad that the Trump campaign ran in this campaign was, you know, 'Kamala Harris is for they/them, and Donald Trump is for us.' That's because most people don't see themselves as they/them. Yet, the Democrats have spent more time talking about a trans issue, which, quite frankly, is infinitesimal."[21]

Minnesota Governor and Harris's running mate, Tim Walz, responded: "They're running millions of dollars of ads demonizing folks who are just trying to live their lives."[22]

Sarah McBride, who is the first openly transgender member of Congress and was elected to the House of Representatives in 2024, said of the ads: "It wasn't the surgery point, it wasn't the undocumented-immigrant point, it wasn't the trans point, it was the concept in that line that Kamala Harris, according to the ad, was for a small group of people, and Donald Trump was there for 'you'."[23]

In the debut episode of his podcast, Democratic California governor Gavin Newsom agreed with conservative activist, Charlie Kirk that "Kamala is for they/them" was the most politically destructive attack ad against Harris. "She didn't even react to it, which was even more devastating," Newsom said. He added that "it was a great ad."[24]

Harris Loss Has Democrats Fighting Over How to Talk About Transgender Rights

Kamala Harris left Donald J. Trump’s anti-transgender attack ads largely unanswered. Some Democrats call it political malpractice.

:{Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign’s decision not to rebut attacks from Donald J. Trump has landed in the center of a contentious debate over the role transgender issues played in her party’s losses around the country

By Adam Nagourney and Nicholas Nehamas

Nov. 20, 2024

In the weeks before Election Day, aides to Kamala Harris could see in campaign polling that Donald J. Trump’s attacks on Ms. Harris’s support for transgender rights were driving away swing voters.

Struggling to put together a rebuttal, they produced a series of ads arguing that Mr. Trump was trying to distract from more important issues. Some of the spots noted that the policy Mr. Trump was seizing on, taxpayer-funded gender-transition surgery for inmates, was in place when he was president.

But none of the messages significantly swayed voters when the ads were tested with focus groups, according to four former Harris campaign aides who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

After a sharp, internal debate, the campaign shelved the ads. Instead, it settled on an anodyne television spot that showed the vice president condemning “negative ads” without mentioning Mr. Trump’s transgender attacks.

Since Ms. Harris’s defeat, her campaign’s decision has landed in the center of a contentious debate over how large a role transgender issues played in her party’s losses around the country. Several prominent Democrats said Ms. Harris’s relative silence was a damaging concession to Mr. Trump — and evidence that the campaign was so out of step with Americans’ views that it did not appreciate the potency of the ads.

“Malpractice was committed by that campaign,” said Ed Rendell, a Democratic former governor of Pennsylvania and former chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Mr. Rendell said he was so alarmed by the Trump attacks that he called top Harris campaign advisers, pleading for them to respond directly.

“They saw the ad, they knew it was being bought in heavy quantities,” he said. “Where were they? What were they thinking?”

That view has faced vocal pushback from some Democrats, particularly on the left, who warn against pinning Ms. Harris’s loss on her position on transgender rights. In a year when voters were so concerned about the economy and unhappy with President Biden, they argue, there is little hard evidence that transgender issues had a significant impact on the results.

“I never heard it anywhere on the campaign trail,” said Representative Mark Pocan of Wisconsin, a Democrat. Mr. Pocan said that scapegoating a small and vulnerable group was “the ultimate misdirection” — and that the party instead needed to address its failure to deliver on the economic concerns of working-class voters.

But for Democrats now turning to rebuild after a demoralizing and decisive loss, the question of how the party deals with transgender rights has emerged as a challenge for the years ahead. Democrats are divided as they watch what many see as a matter of basic human rights become part of the Republican arsenal.

What is taking place is both an autopsy of the Harris campaign strategy and a debate over key questions about the future. Does the party need to adjust its messaging before the 2026 midterm elections and the 2028 presidential race? Should transgender people’s access to health care or sports teams be embraced as the kind of civil rights cause Democrats have championed for generations? Should the party allow for more dissent and open discussion, as Representative Seth Moulton, a Massachusetts Democrat, argued after the election?

Republicans clearly see a political opportunity. The Trump campaign spent more than $37 million on television ads that invoked transgender issues, nearly 20 percent of its overall ad budget, according to data provided by AdImpact, an organization that tracks political ad placement and spending.

Republicans also deployed advertisements on transgender issues in Senate races. In Ohio, Republicans attacked Senator Sherrod Brown by saying he supported “allowing trans biological men in girls’ locker rooms.” Mr. Brown, unlike Ms. Harris, responded with his own ad, calling that claim “a complete lie.” (He lost his seat.)

Ms. Harris could not dismiss the Trump attacks so easily. Mr. Trump’s most prominent ad used a 5-year-old video clip of Ms. Harris saying that “every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access” to taxpayer-funded gender transitions. “Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you,” an announcer said.

In an interview, Senator John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, denounced political attacks on transgender people. But the Trump campaign ad, he acknowledged, amounted to a “brilliant type of political messaging” that cast Republicans as focused on “you” and the Democrats as overly attuned to issues that did not affect the lives of many Americans.

“How can you sum up ‘woke’ in one commercial?” Mr. Fetterman said. “Try and top that.”

Mr. Trump’s attacks on transgender rights came from a familiar playbook. For nearly 50 years, Republicans have seized on divisive social issues that touch a nerve with the public but are often underestimated by Democrats. They typically focus on an issue that affects a small minority of Americans — but can be used to cast a candidate as out of touch.

Mr. Trump’s message tapped into some Americans’ unease about changing gender norms, particularly as the issues were framed by the Republican presidential candidate. At his rallies, he mocked transgender female athletes, and, later in the campaign, claimed — falsely — that schools had conducted transition surgery on students without informing their parents.

It is difficult to know how effective these attacks were. The issue was far from the top concern mentioned by voters in polls before Election Day: It trailed well behind the economy and immigration. In a Gallup poll, voters ranked transgender rights as the least important of 22 issues in the 2024 election. Only about 1 percent of Americans identify as transgender, according to Gallup.

But pollsters said it might have played a less obvious and still significant role: For one thing, Mr. Trump used it to reach his core base of voters, who turned out for him in strong numbers on Election Day.

“That’s what Republicans do very, very well,” said Cornell Belcher, a Democratic pollster. “They keep their vote energized and mobilized.”

The attacks might also have had an impact on swing voters in indirect and subtle ways. Part of the Trump campaign’s aim was to portray Ms. Harris, whose election would have broken gender and racial barriers to the White House, as out of the mainstream, analysts from both parties said.

“That was the headline: That she is ‘other,’” Mr. Belcher said. “That entire ad says, ‘She is not one of us. She doesn’t share our values. She’s scary.’ It’s not just transgender people: It’s all Americans who are not quote-unquote, traditional Americans.”

Americans have nuanced and sometimes contradictory views in the debates over transgender rights. And the positions of many Democrats on critical issues — such as support for minors using puberty-blocking medications and surgery to transition — are not in line with many Americans.

Roughly 55 percent of voters said support for transgender rights in government and society has gone too far, according to AP VoteCast. More than 60 percent of adults say transgender women and girls should not be allowed to compete in sports with other women and girls, a Washington Post-KFF poll found. And strong majorities oppose minors’ using medications or hormone treatments, according to the Post-KFF poll.

At the same time, more than 60 percent of Americans support protecting transgender people from discrimination, according to the Pew Research Center. Most also oppose the government banning gender-affirming care for minors, including medication and surgery, Gallup found.

For Democrats, a central question is how much these issues will be used by Republicans in future presidential campaigns — as well as whether they will prove to be effective as the issue becomes more familiar to Americans.

Public attitudes on social debates have historically evolved with time. In 2004, the campaign of George W. Bush tapped into opposition to same-sex marriage as a way to rally conservative voters and turn independent voters against Democrats. Two decades later, gay marriage is almost a mainstream position.

Representative Sara Jacobs, a California Democrat, said that rather than ignoring the issue, she believes Democrats must make a proactive case to dispel the fears of voters, as they did in the fights against same-sex marriage bans.

And for all the attention on Mr. Trump’s use of the issue, voters elected the first transgender member of Congress this year: Sarah McBride, a Democrat from Delaware. (Even before Ms. McBride was sworn in, Representative Nancy Mace, a South Carolina Republican, said she would introduce a measure to bar transgender women from using women’s rooms and changing rooms in the Capitol complex.)

Democrats positioning themselves for the 2028 presidential race are looking for lessons from the Harris campaign.

The Trump ads on transgender surgeries for inmates were among the most damaging attacks on the vice president — although not as potent as the messages about the economy, crime and immigration — said the campaign officials, who asked for anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss internal deliberations. The campaign’s research concluded that the ads made voters think that Ms. Harris was focusing on things they did not care about, instead of the economy, their top priority.

After testing several response ads with focus groups and online panels, the campaign ultimately resorted to smaller-scale direct rebuttals, including digital ads that focused on the Trump administration policy that also paid for transition surgeries. And it ran ads on search engines that would appear if people searched for more information about Mr. Trump’s attacks.

The aides did not say whether Ms. Harris weighed in on the discussion.

But largely the campaign decided the best response was changing the subject. Meg Schwenzfeier, the chief analytics officer for the Harris campaign, said the vice president’s team determined its economic message was the most effective answer.

“In all of our quantitative and qualitative research on this ad, our best-testing responses pivoted to the economy,” Ms. Schwenzfeier said. “These responses not only neutralized the attack but actually moved people towards us — because they showed voters that the vice president did care about you.”

Exit polls show the vice president did not win the economic argument. More than half of voters said they trusted Mr. Trump, rather than Ms. Harris, to handle the economy.

In this charged post-election environment, the Trump attacks are outliving the campaign. Activists and others who work with transgender people, particularly transgender youths, say the political debate has resulted in a spike in reports of cyberbullying, online harassment and family tensions.

“I can talk about the harm caused as evidenced by a surge of calls to our crisis line,” said Jaymes Black, the chief executive of the Trevor Project, which focuses on suicide prevention among L.G.B.T.Q. youths. “This peddling of the negative stereotypes exacerbates the mental crisis of our young people.”

Nov 20, 2024 — Democrats accuse Harris campaign of 'malpractice' for silence on Trump's transgender attacks. One of Trump's most-aired attack ads in the ...

Several prominent Democrats have slammed the Harris campaign’s decision to stay silent over Donald Trump’s transgender attack ads, including one who described the inaction as “malpractice.”

During the 2024 presidential campaign, one of Trump’s most-aired attack ads against Kamala Harris ended with the statement: “Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you.”

The message landed with voters and prominent Democrats even tried to intervene, urging the Harris campaign to respond directly.

“Malpractice was committed by that campaign,” Ed Rendell, the former Democratic governor of Pennsylvania and former chairman of the Democratic National Committee, told the New York Times.

“They saw the ad, they knew it was being bought in heavy quantities,” he said, adding that he called a Harris campaign adviser and urged them to respond. “Where were they? What were they thinking?”

Harris did respond to the attacks but with atame 30-second message saying the negative ads were “designed to tear us apart.”

She did not reference the transgender line of attack by Trump, nor point out that one of the policies he was focusing on — taxpayer-funded gender-affirming care for inmates — was actually in placeduring his first administration.

The campaign pulled together a number of ads rebutting Trump, arguing that he was trying to distract from more pressing issues. But the ads did not sway voters when they were tested with focus groups, according to the Times,which spoke to four former Harris campaign aides anonymously, and were dropped.

New York Rep. Tom Suozzi and Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, both of whom have supported transgender rights in Congress in the past, were among Democrats who expressed frustration following Harris’s defeat at their party’s unwillingness to address an issue that was central to the Trump campaign’s messaging.

“The Democrats have to stop pandering to the far left,” Suozzi said at the time. “ I don’t want to discriminate against anybody, but I don’t think biological boys should be playing in girls’ sports. Democrats aren’t saying that, and they should be.”

Moulton added: “Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face.

“I have two little girls, I don’t want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I’m supposed to be afraid to say that.”

Rep. Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, who was narrowly reelected, said that the party shouldn’t abandon its support for transgender rights but the messaging needs a rethink in light of the election result.

“We need to improve our messaging. I got clobbered on all the transgender messaging in my district, and it was very painful,” he told The Hill.

However, it’s not a view shared by all Democrats.

“I never heard it anywhere on the campaign trail,” Rep. Mark Pocan of Wisconsin told the Times. He added that scapegoating a vulnerable group was “the ultimate misdirection” of the party.

When it came to what voters cared about most, the economy, democracy and national security were ranked much higher than transgender rights, according to Gallup.

LGBTQ+ rights, particularly those of trans athletes, have long been under attack by the president-electand his right-wing coalition, sparking fear among members of the community.

During the campaign trail, Trump and his allies often spewed anti-trans rhetoric, railing against trans athletes in particular.

The president-elect vowed to ban transgender athletes from competing in sports and has made a series of false claims about transgender healthcare in the US, including the lie that kids are being offered gender transition surgeries in schools.
