Some people want to pretend (or are ignorant) that US presidents supplying entertainment they favor (and panders to specific voters or segments of US culture), at the White House, is somehow new.

Barack Obama hosted several rap and hip-hop artists for performances during his presidency.
Notable rap performances at the White House include:

Common: Performed at the "In Performance at the White House: A Celebration of Music from the Civil Rights Movement" event in 2010.
Kendrick Lamar: Performed at a Fourth of July celebration event at the White House in 2016.
Lin-Manuel Miranda: Performed an early rendition of Hamilton at the White House Poetry Jam in 2009.
Chance the Rapper & Wale: Attended and performed at various events, including state dinners and youth music workshops during the Obama administration.
The Roots: Frequently performed and backed up other artists as the house band for various late-night and special music events hosted by the Obamas.

Well! You certainly deserve all the imaginary points you think you've scored. Cage fighting on the Whitehouse lawn.. some kind of cultural low point .. or am I wrong?

Well, I guess pansy foppish Brits may find manly sports, like boxing, UFC, etc., lowbrow. I'm not a fan myself, but I don't look down my nose at people who are. I'm not a fan of any sports, but I don't assume that being one makes you uncultured. Trump likes fighting sports, but he's also a big fan of classical music and opera.

Theodore Roosevelt (26th U.S. President) had a boxing ring set up in the White House gymnasium. He often invited military aides and professional fighters to spar with him inside the White House during his presidency.

So you think she's just lying about what she thinks of transgenders?

Yep...she says whatever makes her the most money. Nobody could realistically consider .95 % of the population some sort of urgent political issue.

So, at one point, she was openly supportive of transgenders?
Can you show me that? @_@

Was she? Or did she just not discuss it? Alot of people don't you know.

IOW, you have no idea.
Everyone I'd characterize as a grifter is because I can actually show where they changed their tune to chase money, clicks, etc..

[Magical Realist]

OW, you have no idea.

Have no idea she's a grifter as opposed to experiencing a sudden and fortuitously lucrative conversion to MAGA hate and transphobia? LOL No...I'm quite sure. People don't convert from tolerance to intolerance.

If I were part of the LGB community, I would know that any criticism against the transgenders would likely get me cancelled. So I wouldn't want to talk about it either. I'm sure I would value my supportive community.... until it favors transgenders so much that it no longer supports me. I can understand this because I actually have empathy, and can see things from another's viewpoint. I'm not a leftist, who can only "empathize" with people who agree with them. Because she doesn't agree with you, you have no empathy to try to understand. So you have to knee-jerk assume she's a grifter. That's who you are. That is intolerant.

Actually being LGBTQ and freely living your life means you aren't arguing with haters at all. You have no time nor place for it. As part of the LGBTQ community you spend time with THOSE people and know for a fact they aren't perverts or bathroom rapists. Not talking about it is the default state. Having a podcast where you make money on followers and views otoh means you have an agenda to be controversial and theatrically sarcastic, garnering emotional reactions from online politically-obsessed no-lifers. So the transition from not even thinking about it to focusing on it everyday over and over like Rowling does is quite predictable. She needs fame and fortune. And becoming a viral hatemonger is the quickest way to do that.
