Former President Donald Trump issued one of his strongest criticisms to date against doctors who perform transgender surgeries for children, saying he would sign a law barring the procedure.
“Something else I find hard to believe that I have to even say,” Trump told a Faith and Freedom Coalition event on Saturday. “It’s so ridiculous. It’s so horrible and so ridiculous. I will keep men out of women’s sports,” he added.
Going further, Trump vowed: “And I will sign a law prohibiting child sexual mutilation in all 50 states. Prohibited.”
“And on day one I will reinstate the Trump ban on transgenders in the military. Because a warrior should be focused on crushing American enemies, on being strong, on having the image of being strong,” Trump said, adding: “They have to be powerful. They have to be strong, especially when you see what’s happening in the world today, not catering to radical gender ideology.”
The former president also targeted the Marxist-inspired critical race theory, promising to cut federal funding to schools that promote the controversial framework. Schools would also face funding cuts if they force what he described as inappropriate political, sexual, or racial content onto children.
“Can you believe this? Can you imagine saying this 10 or 15 years ago? I will fight for parents’ rights,” Trump said, adding, “I will fight for the direct election of school principals by the parents, the parents of the school. If any principal is not getting the job done, the parents should be able to fire them immediately and select someone who will.”
Trump also told the crowd that he “will not give one penny to any school that has a vaccine mandate or mask mandate from kindergarten to college.”…
