On Friday, Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) joined broadcaster Piers Morgan and host Bill Maher on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’ to discuss transgenderism in America and the results led to a series of clips that humiliated the Democrat.
A large portion of the discussion focused on transgender individuals competing in women’s sports, a practice that Porter supports but Morgan and Maher oppose. The conversation mainly revolved around former swimmer Riley Gaines who was defeated by transgender athlete Lia Thomas last year and has now become an outspoken activist against males in female sports.
“Nobody, including Riley Gaines, who I disagree with strongly…” Porter began before Morgan interjected asking what she disagreed with. “I think it should be up to sporting bodies to make the decisions.”
“But what has she said that’s actually wrong?” Morgan asked.
“I think what she has done is try to turn this, we talked about people using things to get likes and get clicks,” she said before Morgan said: “That’s not what she’s doing…All I’ve seen her do is stand up for women’s rights to fairness and equality. She actually competed against Lia Thomas and it was obviously unfair. Lia Thomas won one of the races in the NCAA Championships by 50 seconds against a bunch of biological females who simply couldn’t keep up. It cannot be right. It cannot be fair.”
“That’s something that I think our sporting bodies should be dealing with. And by the way, Riley is speaking up for herself and that’s her prerogative and I respect her free speech,” Porter stated.
“I think she’s speaking up for pretty much every female athlete in the world,” Morgan said as the audience applauded.
Maher then entered the conversation and explained that wokeness is the opposite of liberalism and that Title IX was a feminist victory during his childhood, but transgender athletes are destroying that accomplishment.
Morgan then proposed that transgender athletes either compete with their biological sex or create a different league for them saying, “What you cannot do is continue to allow more and more trans athletes to start decimating women’s records, in some cases irrevocably.”
Another clip went viral after Porter called Gen Z voters “immature” despite a large portion of the Democrat Party being made up of those individuals.
“I just think our kids are not mature,” host Bill Maher said.
“I think they are constantly seeking affirmation. This is because of things like Instagram. You post something and people validate you,” Morgan responded.
“It’s a sickness,” Maher responded before being interrupted by Rep. Porter.
“You guys sound kind of old,” she said as the audience laughed with Morgan being shocked by the comment.
“Kids are immature. That’s why they are kids,” she said as Maher said, “not at 21.”
“Yes, 21-year-olds are immature. That’s why we don’t let them drink until their 21. That’s why some of us don’t think 20-year-olds or 19-year-olds ought to be able to get AR-15s,” she continued.
“They can go fight. They can be in the army. They can vote. I thought if you can vote you should be able to have a certain level of maturity. They are deciding whether you should be in Congress or not,” Maher pointed out.
“By the way I win those votes and I’m proud of it,” she responded.
“You just said that you win the votes of the immature,” Maher shot back.
“The immature – first off, immaturity is not necessarily an age thing. You can be immature well into your adulthood,” Porter explained.
“But you just played the age card,” Maher shot back. “You’re like our argument sucks because we’re old. That’s getting so boring. Shouldn’t we critique each other on the content of our ideas, not on those identity politics? You’re all ‘You couldn’t possibly have the right idea.'”
Maher then went on to explain that America raises very immature people since “we coddle them”, “we give them a sense of entitlement, and they don’t have to learn anything in school.”
