2020-11-04 - Anticipating the Election

Produced on the Election Day but released on the day after, this
episode anticipates the turmoil to come. Jonny first delves into
the Trump Administration's attempts to whitewash their LGBTQ+
record and the strange phenomenon of LGBTQ Trump supporters. He
then coasts through a series of good news items about the LGBTQ
community that may have been eclipsed by the US elections. These
include children with same sex parents performing better
academically, the state department dropping law suit appeals over
the citizenship of children with same sex parents, Texas abandoning
its attempts to allow social workers to discriminate against LGBTQ
clients, non-virtual Pride in Taiwan, and the engagement
announcement of Megan Rapenoe and Sue Bird.
