I was expressing concern about them possibly hurting their own chances, because I WANT them to win.

I also happen to care a lot about trans rights and the fact that the trans community has been under such heavy attack for a while now. When I said, "This worries me," I meant that I was worried on behalf of both trans folks AND Democrats. I will always support both, and I always vote for Dems.
