Steyer Makes Girls’ Sports His Big Cause
California Democrat governor candidate Tom Steyer is once again putting transgender athletes in girls’ sports at the center of his message, and he is doing it with the confidence of a man who thinks every parent in the state is begging for more of this debate. In a new video, Steyer said the governor’s job is to protect Californians and stand between them and danger, then used that claim to argue for support of trans youth. That may play well in the far-left world of activist hashtags and donor praise, but for a lot of California families, it sounds like a rich guy from the cloud district lecturing them about realities he does not have to live with.
Video With AB Hernandez Draws Fast Reaction
Steyer’s post featured transgender athlete AB Hernandez, who is trying to win another set of state titles in girls’ track and field. The clip spread quickly and brought both praise and criticism, which is usually what happens when politicians decide to pick the most divisive topic possible and then act surprised when people notice. Republican candidate Steve Hilton blasted Steyer as wildly extreme and said he is out of touch with most California families and young people. Critics on social media were even sharper, saying Steyer’s message showed no concern for girls who lose chances, medals, and fairness when male athletes are allowed into female competition.
California Voters Know What This Debate Is Really About
Steyer’s defenders may call this courage, but many voters see a familiar pattern from the modern Democratic Party: pick the loudest activist cause, ignore the people who actually have to deal with the fallout, and hope no one notices the disconnect. That trick is getting harder to sell in California, where residents are dealing with high costs, crime, and failing public services while a billionaire candidate seems glued to a niche issue that most parents would gladly rank much lower on the list. The public already made its feelings clear in the 2024 election, and Steyer’s decision to double down only gives voters another reminder of where his priorities really sit.
