    Jeet Heer Retweeted David Axelrod

    Leaving morality aside, Ted Cruz is making a big political mistake in using transphobia as a wedge against Trump.https://twitter.com/davidaxelrod/status/726386844213059584 …

    Jarring to hear @tedcruz ads on Chicago radio, savaging @realDonaldTrump for opposing NC bathroom law. Aiming at Rs in neighboring IN.

        @HeerJeet not a bad bet for the primaries given the voters, though?

        @BrentNYT In current climate, xenophobia is more potent than transphobia, which is relatively abstract threat for most Republicans

        @HeerJeet surely you underestimate the ginormous threat of men having sexual reassignment surgery so that they can use women's bathrooms?

        @HeerJeet @davidaxelrod indeed. Cruz already owned LGBT-haters who don't hate Muslims/Mexicans more.

        @HeerJeet @davidaxelrod @tedcruz @realDonaldTrump Smart of him to target it at NE Indiana markets rather than the doughnut counties though.
