I find it weird that people assume Trump actually doesn't know what's in the bill because he said this. Trump is lying, and he wants other Republicans to lie too. It's like when he says he won the 2020 election.
@Autumncolours3 @Alex37731@Runnerinplace@ShurThisIsIt@SarahTheHaider A fair hypothesis, but it looks like there is some question as to whether rapid onset gender dysphoria is a real phenomenon: https://t.co/faob9UO18F

@Alex37731@Runnerinplace @Autumncolours3 @ShurThisIsIt@SarahTheHaider I think most if not all gender clinicians would be the first to acknowledge that while behavior in young childhood *could* be a message about gender identity, it's definitely not definitive
