California Candidate Manages To Out-Crazy Katie Porter, Voices Support For ‘Gender Neutral’ Olympics

California gubernatorial candidate Betty Yee, a Democrat, told host Piers Morgan that she would be in favor of considering a “gender neutral” Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028, arguing that trans-identifying female athletes are women and that biological women would be fine competing against them.

Yee made the comments on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” just days after one of her competitors, former Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), landed in hot water over two viral videos — one of which showed her berating a staffer, and the other a testy exchange with a CBS News reporter in which she refused to answer any follow-up questions.

WATCH:

“They are now part of — they have been through transition, a physical transition — and I do believe that they should be able to participate with other female athletes,” Yee said.

“Wow,” Morgan replied. “You’ve got the Olympics coming to California, to L.A., so are you suggesting that you would allow trans athletes to compete in women’s sport in the Olympics if you were governor?”

“Well, I think there’s still a lot of discussion that needs to happen,” Yee said. “I think there’s a lot of information we need to learn about what’s really happening with the ability of trans athletes to compete, but my statement is about being able to be sure that they can compete, and right now —”

“My question is whether you think they should compete in women’s sport in the Olympics,” Morgan interrupted. “It’s coming to L.A., so it’s relevant.”

“I think transgender female athletes are women athletes,” Yee declared. “And they should be able to compete.”

“Wow,” Morgan responded. “Really? So if you were Governor of California, you would support biological males who identify as women competing in women’s sport in the Olympics?”

Nodding her head slightly, Yee continued, “They are now identifying as transgender female —”

“You think that makes them — and you think it’s fair that they should then compete in women’s sport?” Morgan asked again.

When asked directly why the sexes were separated in sport to begin with, Yee acknowledged that there were physical differences between men and women — but did not alter her position on trans-identifying men competing alongside women.

Morgan continued to press until he finally suggested that she might prefer a “gender neutral” Olympics — and Yee lamented that it wouldn’t be “tomorrow,” but was still “a conversation worth having.”

Sharing the clip a bit later, Morgan quipped, “If you thought Katie Porter’s campaign to be Governor of California was going badly, let me present one of her rivals…”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
