Jen Psaki went off the deep end with this scary reaction to the 2024 election
This wasn’t a good look for Jen Psaki.
The former White House press secretary turned MSNBC yacker didn’t process Donald Trump’s win well at all.
And Jen Psaki went off the deep end with this scary reaction to the 2024 election.
Jen Psaki gives Democrats extremely bad advice
Political parties are always trying to define the meaning of an election.
In the case of the 2024 Presidential race, the message was simple and direct.
Americans thought Democrats were weirdos.
The most memorable ad of the 2024 cycle was a Trump ad that played on loop during football games hammering Kamala Harris over her support for taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries for prison inmates.
Kamala Harris – who had her preferred pronouns listed in her social media bio – also supported allowing biological men to play women’s sports.
Pundits – as well as some Democrats like Massachusetts Congressman Seth Moulton – argued the takeaway from the election was that Democrats alienated men and married women by going all in on the transgender agenda.
There were calls in some quarters of the party to retire woke identity politics.
Jen Psaki was not among them.
Democrats can’t walk away from identity politics because their base won’t allow it.
Psaki began her MSNBC show tearing into Democrats for going wobbly on transgenderism, an issue that Psaki said Republicans invented and wasn’t real.
“Republicans spent hundreds of millions on anti-trans ads this election cycle, including one that showed Vice President Harris talking about government funding for gender re-affirming care for prisoners and detainees. If that sounds like a particularly obscure issue, it’s because it applies to a tiny group of people, and it’s also a policy that was in place during the first Trump presidency,” Psaki stated.
Psaki also falsely claimed biological men playing women’s sports is a right-wing fever dream.
“Another repeated line in the ads and throughout right-wing media is the idea that America is faced with a crisis of boys playing in girls’ sports. These ads created the perception that the issue of boys playing in girls’ sports was dominating the country, which is completely false,” Psaki argued.
Two biological men fought for the gold medal in this summer’s Olympic Women’s boxing.
A U.N. report revealed biological men won 900 medals in women’s sporting events around the world.
“Look, reflection is good, but if this were actually an issue at thousands of schools across the country, it would be worthy of a debate. However, there are incredibly few examples of transgender girls playing in youth sports, and when we do see these examples, there is no evidence that these kids are a threat to safety or fairness,” Psaki added.
“When I say a few examples, I mean that if you count the instances of transgender girls playing youth sports in any single state, the number often rounds to zero,” Psaki continued.
The media runs the Democrat Party.
Psaki and other leftists create the narratives and messaging the party ultimately adopts.
And Jen Psaki demanding that Democrats double down on transgenderism is a sign the party won’t be able to moderate on that issue very easily.
