Capehart Laments Lack of ‘Nuanced and Thoughtful’ Discussion on Men in Women’s Sports

(NewsBusters)

Capehart began by trying to calm down his fellow liberals who might view Newsom’s appearance as a betrayal, “Well, look, Governor Newsom is somebody whose credentials in LGBTQ rights were cemented 21 years ago, when he, against the advice of every Democrat in the country, issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples.”

However, he did lament that “what this shows is, and what I wished he had done, because I actually listened to the podcast and this entire section. And he kept talking about fairness, which I get, but he didn't talk more fully about, what exactly do you mean?”

Capehart then played dumb on what the definition of a man is, “In the conversation with Charlie Kirk, I mean, the way he says ‘no men in female sports,’ just the way he talks about that, we're not talking about men in drag pretending to be women in sports. We're talking about trans women, trans girls.”
