There's a 100% chance OP's online search history is mostly trans related topics.

Who really gives a s***?

What I care about is embarrassing ourselves on the world stage. I care about chaos and confusion leading to economic concerns. What I care about is Trump blowing up the deficit.

I do not care about a class B athletic event in Maine.

Were you not wanting any part of that $5000 bet over "DOGE Refunds"?
You kind of bailed in that thread.

Oh, THIS is why Northern had the Maine stuff spoonfed to him today...

So brave of her to stand up for those poor men beating women in sports.

Why do you hate women so much?

 

[EagleHawk]

Why don't we just give Trans their own division like the 'wheelchair' events. They don't add to team scores because not everyone has them, but they can compete against those of their own kind for individual titles.

It’s the obvious solution. I don’t understand why liberals so are adamant against it.

As opposed to our performance in Europe last week.

People do realize the Canadians are booing our national anthem. What does that say about how we are perceived overseas

 

[stanzithemanzi12]

No, the obvious solution is you compete in sports against people who were your same sex at birth. If you don't like that then you don't compete. We're not going to cater to these mentally ills any longer.

Agreed.

Thats because you don't have a daughter competing in athletics against biological males. Obviously.

If you did, you would.

Biden was the embarrassment on the world stage. You must have been actually in the tomb during the Afghanistan debacle, beginning of the Ukraine Russia War and October 7th. Weak a** shit is what he was.

 

[Hawk_4shur]

The question I have is why does Trump care so much about an issue in girls track in Maine? Isn't this something that should be decided by the states?

Let the Maine High School Association handle it.

Trump needs to focus on problems that affect the average citizen. Pandering to the base is not an effective form of governance

Oof. Tough day on Wall Street today. And Trump’s polling #’s suck ass

At a certain point Republicans are going to have to stop complaining about trans people and do their gd jobs of fixing the real problems of this country.

So you and the moronic idiots who liked your post aren’t capable of recognizing and denouncing the lunacy of blowing up the dreams of girls competing in sports?
We get “you don’t give a shit”
We get you don’t care about girls who don’t really give a shit about politics at their age, and in the moment, this opportunity is what’s most important to them.

You support an idiotic governor who supports bio men playing sports against women… astonishing, not astonishing.
If a state sees fit to ruin little girls dreams, you’re good with it… do nothing

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

So did he jump with or without his pole?

 

[Colonoscopy]

Like I've said many times before, it makes little sense to have athletes that completed puberty as a male competing against females in any serious athletic competition.

That said, leave it to the governing bodies of said athletics to figure out what the rules should be.

I think the problem mostly takes care of itself

Priorities my friend. Sorry that the young people in Maine feel wronged in some way. Just not a priority for most of us who have to cope with the everyday challenges. I want President Snowflake focused on the real problems we face.

So you except the rules of the governing bodies who allow bio-men to compete against girls?
Just do nothing

So you’re ok with it… got it

 

[Colonoscopy]

The word you want is "accept"

My obvious position is that those governing bodies are making a foolish decision.

My other obvious point is that we (should have limited) control over said governing bodies. Let the localities and then governing bodies (conferences and whatnot) figure it out. I don't think it needs to be a federal issue.

 

[zappaa]

Why is it you libs are constantly posting about trannies rights, and support their NEED to be considered a protected class?
Seems to me you have much bigger things to worry about

Oh my god first world problems, how will we cope?

 

[zappaa]

Oh my god first world problems, how will we cope?

Couldn’t be more clear you’ve never competed in a sport in your entire life and are physically challenged

 

[theVoicefromtheTomb]

Oh my god first world problems, how will we cope?

Have you seen the price of eggs

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

When states and/or governing bodies create laws and rules that marginalize girls, you're damn right I want the president to step in.

You'd be completely wrong. Never whined about competition It's clear you did.
