Donna Brazile : Donald Trump's remarks about school transgender policies are his most deranged and despicable yet.

She says he's painting a picture in which children are essentially kidnapped, held for days so they can be operated on by their school.

Brazile says the reaction of the press to his remarks was pretty much muted.

Michael Hiltzik: None of the published descriptions of Trump ’s appearance give anything like the flavor of his diatribe.

Trump was building on a neurotic obsession about transgender kids that is alive and writhing in the right-wing and Republican fever swamp, he says.

The idea that children are being subjected by mad scientists to gender experiments and surgery is at the heart of anti-transgender legislation signed by malevolent goons.
