Why the things he's saying now it seems they're going directly for right-wing voters. But right-wing voters already have a party that serves their flavor of bigotry just fine, and they have strong brand loyalty. These corporate Democrats have no clue, but probably some consultant told them this would work.
the center may be more transphobic than you think, he isn't using right wing dog or wolf whistles like Elon and Trump, he's mostly taking an anti-trans stance which might be somewhat popular and might be one of those dividing issues that keep otherwise "centrists" from voting for a Democrat (though mostly what polling indicates is voters don't care about the trans issue, because the GOP is flaming a moral panic about it, that is what remains salient for Dems of what the "other side" cares about).
