John Oliver slams Harris campaign for not creating compelling argument in favor of trans participation in youth sports

Left-wing media darlings are coming to Democrats’ rescue after the party’s stinging electoral defeat, gifting them with a can’t-miss message to take to voters: there’s nothing wrong with born-male athletes competing in girls’ sports, it’s barely happening anyway and you’re a total creep if you even question it.

, the “Harry Potter” creator responded, slamming Oliver for “motivated reasoning and confirmation bias,” firing off an impassioned takedown of his preachy polemic.“Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling has been decried as a “TERF,” or “trans-exclusionary radical feminist” by trans activists.“Again and again I’ve come up against men who argue exactly what Oliver does here, using the very same talking points.

“Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face,” Moulton told the New York Times last week. In closing, the MSNBC host pointed the finger at President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans, accusing them of fomenting fake panic over the issue.
