Then let's stop talking about Jake Tapper.

Yeah, we're not split. It's a 70-30 issue. Go with the 70, win some elections, and then you get to make policy and change hearts and minds. But this actually wasn't Gavin Newsom. There was no capitulation. This was the California Interscholastic Federation. And this plan had already been developed before Trump's threat. And there's no way that this could have been put together in the 20 minutes.

So I know it's a fun narrative to... to crap on Greasy Gavin, New Scum, whatever you want to say. You want to call him a she, whatever. That's not what's going on here at all. And it is relevant to say that there are only 10 of these students out of the 5.8 million K-12 public school students in New York.

California, just like it was relevant when the head of the NCAA showed up to testify in Congress and said, we're talking about 10 athletes out of the 510,000. Now, again, that does not mean that I think that trans women in these competitive sports should be able to compete and be ranked against each other.

And that's why this is a reasonable solve, or at least is progress in going in the right direction, because what actually happens here is you essentially have three categories. So the race starts or the pole vaulting competition starts and everybody gets to compete. So trans women as well as biological females.

What they are saying is that a biological female will not go down in the ranking because a trans woman.

Why can't women race women? Yeah, we do.

Why can't women race women? Yeah, we do.

You race against men. I get it. If it's only 10 people, why?

That's why this is part of the solve.

We just talk about it.

We just talk about it.

Yeah, totally. And I think there's just also a lot of people who are nonviolent who are like, yeah, I wish the other gal had one. I'm going to survive moving on. It felt a little 2016 hysterical versus 2024 hysterical, which is much more muted.
