Yeah. The Republicans ran a ton of anti-trans hysteria ads at all levels, including Trump. The Democrats didn't significantly address the issue, so the belief is everyone just believed the nonsense from the anti-trans ads.

I am skeptical of this theory until there's good data to back it up (not holding my breath). I doubt it convinced anyone who wasn't already transphobic; it may have helped turning out transphobes.
