"With the race against Harris on a knife-edge, the change of tack was a gamble. Opinion polls showed that transgender issues were among the least important issues driving voters.
But Tony Fabrizio, Trump’s chief pollster, began testing the anti-trans ad and found that it cut through strongly with men but also with <a class="break-all" href="https://archive.ph/o/afxd1/www.thetimes.com/article/white-women-donald-trump-democratic-party-8jv628b38" rel="nofollow" target="blank">suburban womenn. This crucial voting bloc, who had deserted Trump for Joe Biden in 2020, were pivotal to Harris’s hopes of victory.
When it began airing in September, the ad had an instant impact.
Harris’s team struggled to muster a response. Campaign staff initially dismissed the Republican attacks. A Democrat ad to counter the “they/them” attack tested poorly and never ran.
The Trump ad gained momentum when the radio host Charlamagne tha God drew attention to it on his show, The Breakfast Club, which is influential with the black voters courted by both candidates. The ad prompted an on-air debate about LGBT rights and the fixation with gender ideology on the far-left.
“That was nuts… When you hear the narrator say Kamala supports tax-payer funded sex changes for prisoners, that one line, I’m like ‘Hell no, I don’t want my tax-payer dollars going to that’,” Charlamagne said. “That ad was impactful.”
Trump’s team used clips from Charlamagne’s show to cut another ad, piling on the pressure. Asked about the issue in an <a class="break-all" href="https://archive.ph/o/afxd1/www.thetimes.com/article/key-takeaways-kamala-harris-interview-fox-news-xxx9zlrrz" rel="nofollow" target="blank">interview with Fox Newss in October, Harris offered only a limp response.
“I will follow the law, a law that Donald Trump actually followed,” the vice-president said. Harris’s campaign insisted that her message of unity would win out, despite feedback from activists on the ground that the anti-trans message was resonating with voters. There were calls from senior Democrats, including Bill Clinton, the former president, to rebut Trump’s claim more forcefully.
“Even the Democrats knew this was a killer for them,” Schilling said. “This is not rocket science. This is Politics 101. They are trying to change America’s view of gender, and that’s so deep-seated.”
The campaign was right that the majority of Americans are uncomfortable with the pace of change on views of gender — slightly more than half (55 per cent) of voters said that support for transgender rights in government and society had gone too far, according to AP VoteCast, a survey of more than 120,000 people who cast ballots nationwide."
