It’s a bunch of crap,’ Tester said.
After losing re-election in 2024, Former Montana Senator Jon Tester has spoken out against trans athletes in women’s sports
During an interview on HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher on Friday, Tester said he agreed with California Governor Gavin Newsom’s recent comments that allowing trans athletes in women’s and girls’ sports is “deeply unfair.”
“In that statement, Gavin Newsom is 100% correct,” Tester said. “We’re talking about a very, very, very small amount of people who, by the way, men shouldn’t be playing in women’s sports. It’s a bunch of crap.”
However, Tester also argued, like many other Democrats, that it is an overblown issue.
The truth is is that it has been blown way out of proportion,” Tester said. “We’re talking about that and Congress is acting on that, instead of acting on the issues that impact Americans.”
