Independent, UK- Trump’s return is of particular concern for communities on the receiving end of his most extreme policies, says Dr Jack Drescher, a clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University, who specializes in gender and LGBTQ issues. Many of his clients are increasingly anxious about anti-trans legislation being pushed by Republicans and the threat to gay marriage.
“Absolutely every educated gay person understands that attacks on transgender people are really subtle attacks on gay, lesbian, bisexual people,” says Drescher, who has a private practice in New York. “It feels like the intensity of anxiety is higher, and people are looking into passports in other countries.”
