After losing his re -election in 2024, the former Senator of Montana, Jon Test, said against the Trans athletes in female sports.
During an interview on the real time of HBO with Bill Maher on Friday, Test said that he agreed with the recent comments of the Governor of California Gavin Newsom according to which allowing trans athletes in female and girls sports be “deeply unfair”.
“In this statement, Gavin Newsom is 100%correct,” said testing. “We are talking about a very, very, very small quantity of people who, by the way, men should not play in female sports. It is a bunch of shit.”
However, testing also argued, like many other Democrats, that this is an exaggerated problem.
“The truth is that it was blown away outside proportion,” said testing. “We are talking about it and the congress acts on this, instead of acting on questions that have an impact on the Americans.”

A recent New York Times / Ipsos survey have found that the vast majority of Americans, including the majority of Democrats, do not think that transgender athletes should be authorized to participate in female sports. Of the 2,128 people who participated, 79% said that biological men who identify themselves as women should not be allowed to participate in female sports.
Of the 1,025 people who have identified as a democrats or who lean a democrat, 67% said that transgender athletes should not be allowed to compete with women.
Meanwhile, a National exit survey Directed by the Legislative Action Committee for women concerned for women for America revealed that 70% of moderate voters saw the question of “Donald Trump’s opposition to boys and transgender men playing sports of girls and women and transgender boys and men using bathrooms for girls and women” as important to them.
In addition, 6% said it was everyone’s most important problem, while 44% said it was “very important”.

Test lost his seat against the former Seal Navy Tim Sheehy in November, after having served three terms in Montana – a state that has always voted for the Republican presidential candidate for decades.
Despite the fact that many Democratic legislators and the majority of voters have expressed their opposition to Trans athletes in female sports in recent months, figures such as Test and Newsom have always found other reasons for not supporting the GOP legislation to resolve the issue.
While testing suggested that the question has no impact on Americans “, Newsom argued that the legislation to resolve the issue does not take into account that the transgender population is” vulnerable “.
Social media users laughed at Governor Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., About the announcement of his new podcast.
“So it’s easy to call the injustice of this,” said Newsom on his podcast this week after saying that transcusion is unfair. “There is also a humility and a grace.
“So the two things I can hold in my hand,” continued the governor. “How can we solve this problem with the type of decency I think, you know, is inherent in you, but not always expressed on the question?”
President Donald Trump signed a decree to ban trans athletes in female sports and girls in February, but many states, including California, refused to respect it.
On Monday, the Democrats of the Senate voted almost unanimously to block the protection of women and girls in sport.
The law would have contributed to establishing a stricter precedent to keep the trans athletes outside female sports and girls across the country, because many states have so far refused it to comply with Trump’s executive decree to solve the problem. But not a single Democratic senator voted to help adopt the bill and obstructed it from the damage of the Trump office.
