'But I would ask them: If it's inappropriate to do that at the White House ' which I certainly think it is ' why do you want to have that curriculum jammed into a second-grader's classroom?'

I don't get it. Was anyone showing pictures of topless adults to second-graders as part of a school curriculum?

Surely he's not saying that because a trans person behaved badly, that means that second-grade curriculum should be devoid of any mention of trans people. After all, Bill Clinton is a cisgender heterosexual person, and he indulged in sexually inappropriate behavior - and we know that doesn't mean we should stop letting second graders read books that feature, you know, dads. Knowing, of course, that quite a lot of sexually inappropriate behavior has been committed by mom and dads in other contexts doesn't mean we would now go out and remove any children's books that feature moms and dads - right?
