Rep. Sarah McBride (D-Del.) is the first out transgender member of Congress. Within days of her election this past November, she faced backlash from certain members of the Republican Party. Nevertheless, McBride has continued to find ways to forge ties across the aisle.
In a conversation with POLITICO’s Dasha Burns, Rep. McBride discusses her hope to bring “a sense of kindness and grace” to Congress despite the “reality TV show nature” of today’s politics. The two also discuss the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, how the Democratic Party can rebuild its coalition without “reinforcing right-wing framing” over culture war issues and why her pursuit of bipartisan legislation is in part a direct response to President Trump.
“If we can’t figure out how to solve problems across our political divide,” she tells Burns, “then I believe Trumpism only grows and worsens in this country.”
Plus, White House reporter Myah Ward on Trump’s trip to Scotland and what it revealed about the working relationship between the president and European leaders.
