    I was curious what the topic of his speech was but I didn’t want to watch the video. What was he talking about?

      Gun violence, funnily enough. He had just finished the quintessential conservative “black and trans people cause most mass shootings” argument.

      I certainly didn’t watch anything so ghoulish, but the transcript in reporting was him midway through a Q&A section with someone challenging his stance on the recent trans school shooting, and making implications about him taking a hardline stance on that whilst taking no stance on others. His answer to “how many school shootings in the last 10 years have involved a trans person?” was “too many”… the most eye rollingly evasive answer possible.
