Donald Trump Prioritizes Ending ‘Transgender Lunacy’ in Sports Upon Reelection

 

Arizona, USA — Former President Donald Trump has reaffirmed his commitment to curbing the inclusion of transgender athletes in women’s sports, making it a central promise of his campaign for the 2024 presidential election.

 

Speaking at the AmericaFest event in Arizona, Trump pledged immediate action if reelected, saying, "With a stroke of my pen on Day 1, we’re going to stop the transgender lunacy."

 

He detailed his intentions to sign executive orders aimed at restricting transgender participation in schools, the military, and sports. Trump emphasized that his administration would officially recognize only two genders: male and female.

 

The former president also revisited past controversies, notably criticizing Olympic women’s boxing champion Imane Khelif, who faced gender eligibility allegations but is not transgender. Trump mocked Khelif’s competition, saying, "Who wants men to participate in women’s sports?"

 

Khelif later expressed the emotional toll of such remarks, stating, "The noise from politicians and celebrities hurt me deeply. It affected me a lot, but I overcame it."

 

Trump's stance has ignited both support and opposition, intensifying debates about transgender rights in sports and society. With his inauguration set for January 20, if elected, his policies could reshape these discussions nationwide.
