Breakfast Club host Charlamagne Tha God criticized Gov. Janet Mills (D-ME) on Monday for continuing to advocate for transgender biological male athletes to compete in women’s sports.
The radio host said it’s a losing issue for Democrats.
“Why are folks still talking about trans athletes? Like that is a losing talking point. America’s not with it, and they keep making a micro a macro with that conversation,” Charlamagne said. “It impacts such a small, small group of people, but it makes a whole lot of people think folks lack common sense, so why are they even having that conversation?”

“And I can’t believe it’s states that still want to die on that hill,” he continued. “Like none of these states have a high percentage of trans athletes, so what’s the issue?”

Last Friday, President Trump clashed with Governor Mills over Trump’s executive order banning biological men from participating in women’s sports; Trump signed the order earlier this month.
In response to Trump’s question regarding whether Mills would “comply” with his executive order, she claimed that she would follow both “state and federal law.”
“Well, we are the federal law… You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funding at all if you don’t,” Trump countered.
“We’ll see you in court,” Mills added, with Trump responding, “Good! I’ll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a really easy one.”
