For years, Donald Trump has leaned on all-caps social media posts to grab attention online.

His Truth Social feed often reads like a never-ending shouting match. However, that changed after Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) began mocking the president’s style in dozens of posts interspersed among his regular missives.

This has been going on for the better part of a week, and seems to have gotten to Trump’s ego, as his latest Truth Social posts aren’t in his classic all-caps style.

    agreed with them on transphobic talking points

    I decided to check the actual podcast with Kirk and see what’s the transphobic statement he made.

    Here’s the video, 22:20 onwards, it goes on for a while.

    We can discuss the details, neither do I like his response overall, but you’re massively overblowing and demonizing his position. Anyone can check for themselves. If this is how you think a transphobic fascist-lite sounds, if you think he would actually appeal to any republican voters thanks to this response, you must have a very caricatural understanding of politics and society.
