As the mainstream media grapples with Kamala Harris’ big loss, many are trying to figure out what went wrong. MSNBC host Joe Scarborough put forth the theory that Democrats allowed their party to become too involved with cultural issues, including men competing in women’s sports.
Scarborough brought up the topic of pro-Palestinian protestors on college campuses as another example of Leftist extremism.
“Let’s dig a little deeper because you have that stacked on top of what happened on college campuses this fall, stacked on top of what’s been happening on college campuses over the past four or five years,” he said. “I have said this on the air, and every time I’ve said it, people said, ‘Oh, you’re just saying that because you’re a white conservative.’ No, I’m just saying it because every Democrat that we have ever sat down [to] dinner with over the past five years who have kids that go to colleges, say their kids are afraid to speak in class because they’ll be canceled.”
Scarborough added, “If any of you out there say, ‘Oh, that’s just like a conservative, white, southern guy …’ That’s why you’re losing. That’s why you’re losing. Because that’s what I heard. And I didn’t hear it from Republicans. I didn’t hear it from Trumpers. I heard it from Democrats over the past three or four years. Their kids were afraid to talk in class and say something unpopular because they would be canceled. And it’s an epidemic.”
The “Morning Joe” co-host also pointed to the Democrats’ position on transgender-identifying athletes.
“By the way, by the way, as we’ve said on this show a thousand times, Democrats should be smarter on the women’s athletics thing,” Scarborough went on.
“Eighty-five percent of Americans oppose men transitioning after puberty and competing against women. And I’m not just saying this the day after the election. I’ve been saying this for years. This is not a hard call. You can show compassion and you can show grace. And as the Republican governor of Utah said, ‘Let’s figure out a way to do this.’ But one way we don’t do this is by allowing men who transition after puberty [to compete] against young girls who have been working their entire lives to be as good as they can be. And then they get destroyed in the pool, on the track, etc., etc., etc.”
