evidence: The mother of a transgender daughter asked Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden asked how he would protect LBTQ rights if he is elected president – and Biden said he would just "flat-out change the law." Biden took questions at a televised town hall on Thursday, held opposite one with President Trump on a separate network after the second presidential debate was canceled. [...] "Didn't love all the language Biden used while answering the Q from the mom of a trans kid, but watching a presidential candidate acknowledge the humanity of trans adults and kids (and the epidemic of murders of trans [women of color]) made me tear up," another person tweeted. "I was actually really happy to see Biden's support for trans folk tonight, even if his wording wasn't perfect it's clear he wants us protected and I appreciate that," wrote another Twitter user.
