Yeah how many 16 year olds do you know that know anything about life or what they want? 16 year olds are notorious for making stupid decision.
The president is 78. What is his excuse for being just as immature and impulsive as a 16 year old on social media?

I guess that left wing progressive liberal judges ain't tired of seeing girls and women abused by the transgenderism agenda.
Clutching pearls, no matter how tightly, doesn't change the law.

Did you not follow the link in the OP that links to his Truth Social post?
This is the only quote I found.

“As a Male, he was a less than average competitor. As a Female, this transitioned person is practically unbeatable,” Trump recapped.”

How is this cyber bullying? He simply mentioned the kid in a post. I mean if he’s going to address problems he has to show that the problems do exist. How’s he supposed to do that without giving examples?

Is it?

16 year olds can have a driver’s license and that’s something that affects everyone around them way more than some random trans kid playing a sport.


Maybe but that’s not really my concern here. I’m wondering why you’re all seemingly ok with the president of the United States singling out one kid and using their case to retaliate against an entire state. This is nothing more than cyber bullying a teenager from our highest elected official.

Why are you ok with that? Do you not see the massive power imbalance here? Do you think the president should maybe focus on matters of national importance rather than what some teenage track star is up to?
Minors are impressionable, so yes.

Males do not belong in female only sports, so no.

This further illustrates why boys don’t belong in girl’s sports. And he isn’t female, he biologically still a male. We are physically different.

We ain't clutching pearls and it is the progressive liberals who are disobeying federal law in order to follow the despicable transgenderism agenda.

The W-appointed judge in Maine determined that it was the Trump administration that was disobeying the law.

Like with the case of immigration, there could be legal ways for the Trump camp to do some of these things, but for some reason they keep eschewing the law.

It is the progressive left wing liberal judges who are disobeying the law.

Ok, fair enough.

Did anyone competing at this event object to the trans athlete being there?

I don't believe that George W Bush appointed a "progressive left wing liberal" judge.

Your statement might be valid here if Trump was doing nothing else other than focusing on trans competing against girls but that not the case at all. What’s wrong with focusing on all problems? This is like a burglar saying that cops should focus their attention on more serious crimes like murderer so they can keep on burglarizing. It’s nonsensical. It’s no secret that Trump is focused on numerous issues simultaneously as a president should be. Not just going one at a time.

Who was abused in this particular case? What was the abuse that happened?

Name one victim from this story, besides the kid being cyber bullied by the president of the United States.
So you don’t see that the female competitors are being bullied when they’re competing against a boy who broke the record for the triple jump? The female competitors can’t win. They don’t stand a chance. But that doesn’t matter does it?

Nope

The attacks against the rights of girls and women by the transgenderism agenda is far more despicable and disgusting by far than anything President Trump has done.
Of course, the rights of girls and women mean nothing when they would like to allow transwomen on their team.

Only if it matters to them. If it doesn't matter to them then it's none of my business--or yours, or the President's.

The case in Main isnt over. The finding of the court was based upon procedural issues and not on authority or merit regarding whether ir not boys should be able to participate in girls sports. They also didn't find that the administration can't withhold federal funding based on Title IX violations. They did say that certain procedures had to be followed.

So my hope is that the administration will be back and start pulling funding from places who are allowing this insanity and harm upon female athletes.
