Not a trans person, but I’ve gotten to know a few and taught myself quite a bit, so I feel I can explain it in more or less a nutshell.
Someone is transgender when their gender identity - how masculine, feminine, some combination of both, or neither someone feels and whether or not that changes over time - is different from the sex they were assigned based on their genitalia at birth. For most people the two will line up, but for others, for reasons which aren’t yet well understood, they will diverge from one another.
Despite what many might say to the contrary, gender identity and sex are not the same thing, and truth be told, neither of them are black and white binaries. Gender identity can be masculine or feminine, and that’s the case for most, but you can also have people who identify with both or neither, whom are usually termed as genderqueer or nonbinary. Sex has been traditionally determined by genitalia, which is a satisfactory indicator for most, but there are so many more factors that go into it, such as hormones, genes, and other anatomical characteristics, and sex represents all the possible multitudes of combinations of these, not just the typical XX with a vulva and XY with a penis.

I disagree with your observation that Trump was a better option than Hillary. Certainly not for women, marginalized people, and those in poverty. As far as the media having lied about Trump, it’s honestly hard to look at anything he’s doing now and say that. He’s nothing but a pathologically lying, self-styled despot who would burn every last vestige of democracy to the ground given the chance. And if you can’t see that, you’re not paying attention.

Oh, I see, you’re one of the people who voted Bernie solely because he was anti-establishment and then voted Trump just to spite the country when he was screwed, is that it?
You’d rather screw over marginalized and impoverished people than at the very least keep the status quo?

Ever since the Democrats stole the election from Bernie, I’ve been voting Republican and am very happy with the effect.

In which those who govern do so at the consent of the governed, i.e. democracy.

@NightStalkerYou know WHY american politics never seem to do anything that younger people want or care about?
It’s BECAUSE you don’t vote!
4 out of 5 young adults did NOT vote in 2016 election.
Are you so surprised by the results?
Are you so surprised from earlier results?All those fucking lobbyists and corporations and rich bastards are delighted, thrilled,
because you lazy apathetic kids can’t even bother to do your civic duty!
Because South Park and other ‘cool enlightened’ shit declares,
‘meh voting doesn’t matter’, and you believe them!If you DON’T want democracy to decay into absolute corruption,
THEN VOTE!
This might be the last chance before it all goes to shit!
Fucking this.
