Before the 2024 election, i kept hearing people online and in person expressing themselves about not wanting men in women’s sports.

That turned out to be a “wedge issue” that helped drive voters to the polls…to vote for republicans.
The party did nothing to dispel this talk. All that was said is Kamala has momentum.
