Comedian, father of three girls, says men in women's sports was final straw for many voters
Fox News
Comedian Chris Distefano told Fox News Digital that Democrats' advocating for men participating in women's sports was the final straw for many voters during the 2024 election.
The phrase was launched by the Trump campaign in September 2024. It was repeated in ads, not just for President Donald Trump, but for candidates down-ballot on the Republican ticket. It has been hailed as the most effective campaign slogan of the entire 2024 cycle.
Distefano corroborated the effectiveness of this strategy, listing men competing in women's sports as the catalyst for many people abandoning the Democratic Party in 2024.
"I think also too, like just a big, big, big, big, big thing was for all of us — for certain comedians and all that, this whole — I think the trans women in sports thing was a humongous thing for voters because the, you know, left wanted to go with the narrative that people are anti-trans and people don't, listen, there are people who hate every group for sure. I've never met someone who wants to physically hurt someone because they're trans. I think, like especially in New York, I think trans people are welcome," claimed Distefano.
