But right now it's an impossible issue. And everybody knows that the Democrats keep giving Trump this huge gift where he gets to be like the hero who rides in and protects girls sports in a way that most Americans agree with. And it makes the Democrats look bizarre and out of touch. And that's why that ad that Trump ran against Kamala was so effective. The question then is, are Democrats just dumb?

Like, do they want to just keep pursuing a policy that only 20% of the people support and 80% are, no. The issue is the LGBT lobby is a huge constituent funding base for the Democratic Party now. It is massive. And they used to be dispersed. They used to work on like gay marriage issues and discrimination issues. All of that is one. And instead of packing up, they all work on the trans issue.

They're very, very well funded. They fund Democratic Party institution, the candidate to a massive degree. And those groups do not permit Democratic politicians or Democratic candidates to take what is the obviously politically astute thing to say and say, trans adults deserve respect, but we're not at the point we can let these people participate.

And these interest groups in the Democratic Party are going to absolutely destroy them because this is an issue people feel strongly about. And they've said it over and over and they've proven it over and over.

Totally. I mean, Trump just demonstrated that it has a huge political punch. And again, I don't even necessarily think it's because people know these statistics of how many trans athletes there are. It has all kinds of other implications. Like if you believe that trans girls should be able to participate in girls sports in high school, It has all those other implications for them.

The minute a prisoner says, I'm a trans woman, they get put into facilities with women prisoners. So there's a lot of safety issues, but more than safety issues, it's just a thing that Americans aren't ready to accept. They're not ready to endorse this gender ideology that's extremely radical and new. They don't understand it. They don't believe in it. They're concerned by it.

They're alarmed by it. And this idea that you're gonna force it down their throats and not care about how often they keep telling you that they don't want it. And not only don't they want it, but that they're willing to vote on it. And because it is a proxy to make it seem like Democrats, the perception of Democrats is they don't care what most Americans think. They think they know better.

And this is such a perfect proxy for showing that, that Democrats keep ignoring the fact that 80 percent of the public doesn't want any of these things because they think they know better and they're just out of touch with the things Americans care about. It's politically it's political poison. But I'm telling you, it's because of these interest groups that keep demanding it.
