He continued:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Americans have watched with disbelief as biological males dominate women\u2019s sporting events. Families have been shocked to discover their young children in public schools are being coached into believing they can change their sex and encouraged to make life-altering medical decisions before they can even understand the consequences. It should be no surprise that more state lawmakers are acting to address these obvious wrongs \u2026 This is a clarifying moment, and I am grateful that Biden and Democrats have spelled out where they stand. Soon, American families will have the opportunity to make their views known as well, and I expect it will not be a pleasant result for the president.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden\u2019s pro-transgender policy is a potential <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/health\/2022\/02\/22\/senate-republicans-promise-oppose-elite-backed-transgender-ideology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">boon<\/a> for the GOP because the public is increasingly opposed to the ideology and the medicalization of children.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous\u00a0polls\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rasmussenreports.com\/public_content\/lifestyle\/public_surveys\/most_americans_side_with_j_k_rowling_only_two_genders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">show<\/a>\u00a0the public \u2014 including liberal women \u2014\u00a0increasingly\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/tag\/transgender-poll\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reject<\/a>\u00a0the transgender ideology.\u00a0The new opponents include many liberal-leaning, college-educated women and men who\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/health\/2022\/01\/26\/ny-times-on-transgender-swimmer-grace-and-ease\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hated<\/a>\u00a0former President Donald Trump\u00a0and voted for Joe Biden in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Pro-transgender advocates admit they have\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/30\/trans-activists-admit-theyve-lost-the-debate-urge-stealth-tactics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lost<\/a>\u00a0the public argument\u00a0over sex-switching athletes.<\/p>\n<p>Even President Donald Trump \u2014 who shrugged his shoulders when the Supreme Court partly established the ideology in 2020 \u2014 is speaking out against the ideology. \u201cWe will ban men from participating in women\u2019s sports,\u201d\u00a0he\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/education\/2022\/02\/02\/trump-promise-sto-bar-transgenderism-from-womens-sports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">promised<\/a>\u00a0on January 29 during a Texas speech that mimicked a campaign rally.<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden promoted transgenderism and sex-change treatments for children during his 2022 State of the Union address amid growing evidence that the treatments are dangerous, irreversible, and divisive. \u201cFor<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1891709,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1353913","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1353913","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1353913"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1353913\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1891709"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1353913"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1353913"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1353913"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
