    It gets ignorant people riled up about things that aren’t issues so they emotionally vote in the people who give the rich tax breaks and other benefits that increase their wealth.

    For example, there is no actual trans related bathroom issue that requires making bathroom laws. But getting people riled up about lies that make them afraid gets conservative votes.
