Trump’s Fumble On Transgenderism | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Last week, Megyn Kelly asked former President Trump about his stance on transgenderism, which has changed radically over time.

    Trump used to say that he would allow men to compete against women in the Miss Universe contest. In 2016, he said he would allow Caitlyn Jenner to use the women's restroom, even though Caitlyn Jenner is a man.

    Kelly asked him about why Jenner should have been allowed to use the female restroom. Trump responded that nobody was talking about the issue at the time.

    That's not true.

    Then Kelly asked a simple question: "Can a man become a woman?"

    Trump hesitated. It would have been very easy for him to say, "I changed my mind on the subject."

    But Trump has never admitted that he's ever made a mistake. So that was impossible for him.

    "In my opinion, you have a man, you have a woman," Trump answered. 'I think part of it is birth. Can the man give birth? No, no, although they'll come up with some answer to that also someday. I heard just the other day they have a way that now the man can give birth. No. I'll continue my stance on that."

    It was amazing how uneasy he was to simply say that a man cannot become a woman. This is literally the easiest question of all time. And yet Trump hesitated.

    For a lot of Republican voters, they don't care. They're not even looking at what he says. They're not even looking what he does.

    They feel like they know the guy and they're loyal to him.

    They believe that that because he won in 2016, he'll pull a rabbit out of the hat in 2024.

    Maybe that's right. But Trump does have a moral obligation to speak the truth on matters of basic biology.

In the most recent Midterms Election, the "Republican Red Wave" turned out to be a "Republican Red Ripple," which, as in all elections, confounded the political prognosticators of what to expect down the governing /political road: What, and who, do you think is best for this meandering Representative Republic in the near future?

  Because they know how to best allocate the public's money back to the right part of the public, the Democrats will NOW always prevail and get my vote.

  With patriotic pragmatism the cornerstone of the best of the Republican Party, they will ultimately save this Constitutional Republic from self-destruction.

  Since the Executive Branch is so important to turn this Representative Republic around, I am still on Team Trump in 2024.

  Since the nation may need a different path to Conservative patriotism in the Executive, I am joining Team DeSantis.

  Because I am entitled to take the government dole, the prevailing favoritism whenever possible, I will support any, and every Democrat candidate.
