Political Quotes

“As we adjourn for the weekend, I would like to address three issues which affect Americans, these are issues I don't think have been discussed quite as much as we ought to. The first issue concerns this transgender situation. We spend a lot of time talking about guys in girls' sports. This is a problem that ought to be dealt with. I think it polls very well. Of even more significant concern is that of our out of control psychiatric profession treating this as a genetic problem in which people should have to have surgeries to deal with this. They have surgeries on young people, people as young as 16 or 15 or 14 years old. These are surgeries that will affect them for the rest of their lives. Just as bad, they give puberty blockers to these young people, not knowing what the long-term effects will be. Recently, new information that should have come as a surprise to no one--but perhaps will come as a surprise to the mainstream media--a new study came out showing that the number of young adults identifying as transgender plunged by nearly half in 2 years. It exposed what a lot of us knew all along. It was largely a social contagion. It was not a genetic disease that required surgeries or permanently changing people's lives. As I pointed out before, this does not only affect the people themselves who may have puberty blockers and surgeries but it affects the parents.”
