The Spin
Right narrative
Once again Biden and the left have shown their disdain for religion and revealed themselves to be worshippers of identity politics instead. Biden only pretends to be religious when he needs it to court actual Christians' votes. The president made this unfortunate confluence of one of the holiest Christian days of the year — with a made-up political stunt — worse by issuing his proclamation on Good Friday.
Left narrative
It may surprise those on the right who are drumming up this faux controversy, but there are many LGBTQ Christians and allies who, like Biden, recognize both Easter and the transgender day of visibility. It's shameful that there are Christians on the right using a coincidence on the calendar to attack the president and overshadow the hope and joy Easter represents.
