At a campaign stop in New Hampshire, Donald Trump said that “gasoline-powered engines will be allowed but child sexual mutilation will be banned.”
“Can you imagine having to say that?” he asked. “Can you imagine 15 years ago … somebody up here running for office and he said, ‘We’re gonna ban child sexual mutilation.’ People would say, ‘Is this guy crazy? Of course.’ Or, ‘We’re going to give parental rights back in our schools.’ Who would who would think they’d take it away?” Trump stated.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) thanked Trump for his promise.
President Trump says he will ban child genital mutilation which is exactly what my bill Protect Children’s Innocence Act will do by making child gender affirming care a FELONY,” she tweeted. “And protecting gas powered engines is GREAT too!”
President Joe Biden, however, believes laws protecting the biology of children are “hateful.”
“In 2023 alone, State and local legislatures have already introduced over 600 hateful laws targeting the LGBTQI+ community. Books about LGBTQI+ people are being banned from libraries,” he said in a May 2023 statement. “Transgender youth in over a dozen States have had their medically necessary health care banned.”
“My entire Administration stands proudly with the LGBTQI+ community in the enduring struggle for freedom, justice, and equality. And we are making strides. On my first day in office, I signed a historic Executive Order charging the entire Federal Government with protecting LGBTQI+ people from discrimination — from health care to housing, education, employment, banking, and the criminal justice system,” the statement added. “Last December, surrounded by dozens of couples who have fought for marriage equality in the courts for decades, I had the great honor of signing into law the landmark Respect for Marriage Act. This bipartisan law protects the rights of same-sex and interracial couples — like caring for one’s sick partner and receiving spousal benefits. Deciding who to marry is one of life’s most profound decisions, so we etched a simple truth into law: Love is love.”
