Plenty of Democrats are experts in the art of pandering, but few do it as well as Elizabeth Warren.
With her star quickly fading, Warren’s basically got no choice but to try to score points with whatever minority group she can. Native Americans, black women, and … LGBTQ+ kids.
Arizona GOP State Rep. Nancy Barto’s “Save Women’s Sports Act” would prohibit trans female student athletes from participating in sports designated as “female,” and would apply at both public and private schools, including colleges.
And Elizabeth Warren thinks that’s downright “cruel”:
Trans athletes are not a threat. We need to protect trans kids—and all LGBTQ+ kids—and ensure they feel safe and welcomed at school. I urge the Arizona legislature to reject this cruel bill. https://t.co/9ALVjeIBiv

For someone who claims to care so much about fairness, Elizabeth Warren sure doesn’t seem to care about the inherent unfairness in allowing biological males to compete against girls and women in sports.
Christ, you want to be president? Read some science, or get an advisor to do it for you.

This is an anti-woman position. So disappointing.
Natal men competing against natal women is not the same as being "safe and welcomed at school." Why does sex segregation exist in sport at all? And ask yourself where the trans-men are who demand representation in men's sport.

Elizabeth Warren comes out in favor of ending girls’ sports. https://t.co/HPVBX2vRY5

In other words, Warren wants to end female sports? What a joke. You are insane, lady https://t.co/1eXpa6sfl0

Sports should be SEX segregated as it’s been since WOMEN/GIRLS fought for their own league.
It a shame, you, a female, who loves to pull the *woman card* when it’s convenient don’t understand biology matters in sports.
Advocating for <1% while alienating 50%, WOMEN, isn’t smart

To be fair, Elizabeth Warren hasn’t run a “smart” campaign so far … why start now?
