ESPN star Stephen A Smith makes stance on trans inclusion in women's sports clear

Smith appeared in an interview for Bloomberg last week to talk about his political aspirations. The clip was published on Saturday. He said he considered himself to be a "centrist" when it came to political leanings, but when it came to trans athletes playing in women's sports, that's where he took a different line.

"So that's how I look at it. LGBTQ rights and all that stuff, I'm in full support of that, but when transgender athletes, men are transitioning to women and they're competing in female sports, that's a different animal to me," he said.

"That's not just about LGBTQ rights. That's about prying on the rights of females out there everywhere who were born female, and they're at a decided disadvantage."

The NCAA followed Trump's executive order and changed its policy.

"I do not believe that biological boys should be able to compete against girls in sports, and I think now that certainly not only have the people spoken, because that was something that Trump ran very heavily on, but I believe the court has spoken," McMahon said.
