Republicans are almost always wrong on everything, and even when they are right, they're either on the same side as everyone else or they're on the right side for the wrong reasons. The main problem with the Democrats is that they're moderates unwilling to roll up their sleeves and do what it takes at best, or simply grifting at worst.
However, on trans rights, there's no contest. Dems are almost entirely right, with Republicans being so far in the wrong that they're not even worth talking about. For a bunch of out of touch politicians, democratic lawmakers are doing a decent job on that issue in particular. This is obviously thanks to a ton of hard work by outspoken advocates, but the major improvements they could make would really be less specific to trans people, like better civil rights protections or better access to Healthcare.
