Rep. Katie Porter took a self-inflicted hit to her image as a typical minivan-driving suburban single mom with her recent blast at Riley Gaines.
The California Democrat was upbraided after lashing out at the former collegiate swimmer, saying she disagrees with her “strongly” and accusing her of trying to “get clicks” with her opposition to male-born athletes competing against girls and women.
Ms. Porter, who’s running for the 2024 Democratic nomination for the Senate seat being vacated by Democrat Dianne Feinstein, said “I think our sporting bodies should be dealing with it.” Also coming to Ms. Gaines’ defense was Mr. Maher, who drew applause for saying that “wokeness” is hurting the gains made by female scholastic athletes under Title IX.
