They’re trying to make not liking Trump a mental illness in one state so far, they’re absolutely going to make being Trans a mental illness.
Although with Musk connecting being Trans with attacking Teslas, and the Trump administration treating attacking Teslas as domestic terrorism, I could absolutely foresee Trans people eventually being sent to CECOT and never leaving.
The sponsor (a Republican) has been arrested for soliciting a minor, and MN's governor would have vetoed it anyway. That was just bigotry-signalling to toady to Trump. I'm sure they'll try again, but that instance had no chance of success even before its author got done for allegedly being a nonce.
They don’t have to pass laws for both cops and psychs in southern states to view being trans or leftist as an institutionalizable mental illness.
There are tons of shrinks that would happily come up with something else to call “Trump derangement syndrome” and in these southern states, there is almost no state oversight for mental health care.
(Fuck, even when it comes to children - I was talking to a journalist about my work trying to get a group home shut down - said he had been writing about it for years but the state doesn’t give a shit.)
in MN, a blue state, where it was literally 5 people.
There is no precedent for this, i'm not sure how you would even enforce it, and there's no way it would even begin to pass the congress, let alone the veto powers.
