President Trump remains on offense, and the results have been incredible. I can’t get over it. The days keep passing, and he keeps doing more incredible things righting the deep, immoral wrongs that were done to us during the Biden administration.
We knew he was going to because he promised he would, but aren’t you so used to being disappointed by politicians? ‘Everything’s too hard.’ ‘Didn’t work out.’ ‘The Democrats wouldn’t cooperate.’ We get used to the ‘Well, I guess, you know, we tried.’
But this is the complete opposite. Yes, it is via executive order. Yes, it can be undone by the next president. But it is something. It is progress. He is doing what he said he would do. He is fulfilling the promises he made to us.
He will also push for the legislation, but at least we have a four-year restoration to sanity and, in some departments, morality such that Americans can live again in a way that makes sense, in a way that is safe, in a way that is normal. And if another president comes in after Trump and tries to undo it, they will feel the acute shift in a way that will be profound and will, I think, stop them from doing it. So, there is real value in these executive orders.
Protecting Women’s Sports
With respect to the girls in sports issue, think of how many girls are going to be protected. Think of how many girls are not going to have to undress in front of a boy pretending to be one of them. Think of how many are not going to have their teeth knocked out on the field hockey field because Trump used his pen to fulfill a campaign promise.
It truly was a beautiful event yesterday when Trump signed an executive order banning men and boys from women’s and girls sports. The NCAA has already said it will comply. It was a complete victory in the war to protect our girls. Just unbelievable.
It was actually kind of emotional to watch as he signed the order surrounded by young, innocent, fresh-faced girls who just want to play their sports against other girls. It is all they are asking for. They just want fairness and safety in sport, something that, for many decades, has been a foregone conclusion in the wake of Title IX. But it wasn’t recently thanks to that villain Joe Biden and his sidekick, Kamala Harris, who actually tried to convince us she could do the job of president.
Promises Kept
We have talked about this, but I went to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the night before the election and did something I have never done before in my life – certainly not as a journalist, but not even as a private citizen – and that was I endorsed a candidate, spoke on his behalf, and urged other people to vote for him.
My choice to explain my vote was to tell people that those who were mocking President Trump’s promise to “protect women” did not understand what he was actually going to do when he took the office; that I was voting for him specifically because I believed that promise.
We spoke about that night about Laken Riley. I mentioned her by name. What was the very first piece of legislation he signed into law as president? The Laken Riley Act to protect other young American women and men from the crimes committed by illegals who repeatedly offend and then, in these sanctuary cities, get turned right back out onto the street. That is what happened in Laken Riley’s case.
The Executive Orders
And now we have had three executive orders on the radical gender ideology issue. The first declared that sex is binary. There are no ‘trans’ anythings. You cannot ‘transition’ from being male female or female to male. You can pretend you can call yourself that, but the rest of us do not have to participate in your delusion. We will not be saying your pronouns or pretending that your delusion is anything other than unwellness.
The next one declared the federal government would not be participating in any gender transitions because that is fake too. You cannot use Medicare or Medicaid funds to chop off the healthy genitals of children in the name of this sick ideology, nor can any institution taking government funds in any way perform these procedures and continue to accept those funds.
And now we get this one. This one has the support of 79 percent of the American people in a recent New York Times poll and 67 percent of Democrats. Some two-thirds of Democrats are on the same page as Donald Trump on whether we should have boys who pretend to be girls playing in girls sports and men who pretend to be women playing in women’s sports. The answer is no. This was immoral, it was evil, and it is coming to an end.
