Laverne Cox Criticizes GOP's $65 Million Anti-Trans Ad Campaign

The actress and activist challenges the Republican Party's use of transphobia in election ads, highlighting misinformation and its harmful effects.

Laverne Cox appeared on The Daily Show to address the Republican Party's significant spending on anti-transgender television ads.
The GOP has invested over $65 million in ads since August, targeting trans rights and spreading misinformation, particularly about gender-affirming care.
Cox argues that the ads contribute to increased anti-trans violence and suicide by dehumanizing the trans community.
Despite the heavy ad spending, Cox notes that similar strategies in previous elections have not improved Republican electoral success.
Cox highlights the irony of some anti-trans politicians having personal interests in trans-related content, calling for a stop to dehumanizing tactics.
