“This is why your entire party lost the election,” he said Tuesday on “Fox & Friends.”
He continued, addressing Moulton: “Dude, take a stand and dig in, because this is your moment. Really, honestly, wake up your team because if you don’t turn it around for yourself you’ll not only lose , In fact, people will lose everyone else in the future, this is ridiculous.”
Michaels criticized the Democratic Party for “shaming” people who dare to express concerns about its stance during the 2024 election cycle, and pointed to former President Barack Obama, who reportedly criticized Vice President Kamala Black people were scolded for their apparent reluctance to vote for Harris. Because of misogyny and sexism.
“Maybe they didn’t want their daughter to play against biological men. Perhaps this was his concern. I can’t wrap my head around the party that the Democrats have become, and the more you try to point out these issues, the more they double down. It’s almost radicalizing me to the point of reaching out to them,” he continued.
“(For) this Congressman, Mr. Moulton, dig in here. Don’t step back. Keep doing what you are doing for your family and your party.”
Moulton expressed his feelings on the issue of transgender athletes competing in women’s sports during a New York Times interview, citing his position as a father of two young daughters.
“Democrats spend too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being completely honest about the challenges facing many Americans,” he told the outlet. I have two little girls. I don’t want them to be crushed on the playing field by a male or former male athlete, but as a Democrat, I’m afraid to say it.
He later doubled down on his stance in a statement as he faced calls to resign and accusations of “betrayal” from members of his own party.
Appearing on “Fox & Friends” earlier Tuesday, Moulton said Democrats have a “strong record” of defending transgender people, including transgender children,
“This isn’t even about trans kids. That’s another criticism I’ve heard,” he said.
“My children are small. They play on coed football teams just like I did when I was their age. But, when they get older, when we’re talking about competitive sports when people are much older, it’s appropriate to impose restrictions… For some reason, because of some conservative litmus test in our party, We shouldn’t even entertain the idea, and all I’m saying is, let’s debate.”
