Sports broadcaster Bob Costas gave some harsh opinions on HBO about President Biden, President Trump and male athletes competing in women’s sports.
Costas, a legendary announcer who was active in the Super Bowl and the Olympics, appeared on “Real Time with Bill Maher” and took fierce and resolute positions on a variety of issues.
Maher brought up the topic of Leah Thomas, a man who won the NCAA Division I swimming championships competing against women, noting how he fared better against women.
“She’s relatively much better in competition with women. Overall she’s not really at the top,” Kostas said, true to Thomas’ preferred pronoun.
“Obviously a lot of people say it’s unfair,” Maher said, pointing the issue back to Costas.
“I won’t go into too much detail on this, but each federation that governs these sports sets its own rules. …When it comes to Olympic boxing, the federations have to ensure that trans women are biologically protected from the time they are born. I understand that they’re allowing me to play against a woman, a biological woman. That’s crazy.”
“It’s not transphobia to try to inject common sense here. A lot of this issue is ambiguous,” Costas continued.
“We know that some of the people who see this as a problem are actually hostile towards transgender people. … So that one day the best players in the WNBA can play in the NBA. If that happened, everyone would applaud, but if the worst player was the last one at the end of the game. No one would have thought that the bench of the worst team in the NBA would go to the WNBA and average 40 points per game. That’s what I know.”
Costas also criticized President Biden for continuing to run for re-election despite his apparent cognitive decline.early February 2024 Report Federal authorities said that if Mr. Biden were to appear before a jury, he would likely be acquitted of mishandling classified documents because he appears to be a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” Ta.
“When it comes to Biden, this is kind of a truth that no one wanted to say out loud until very recently,” Costas began. “Joe Biden should have run on the promise that he would be a one-term president. The only reason he is president is that he is not Donald Trump,” he said. declared.
“Democrats could have put a lot of people in the bullpen and screened those people.”
The sports announcer also referred to President Trump as a threat to democracy “in every sense of the word,” while also saying that Biden is unable to articulate why Trump should not be re-elected. Stated.
“The MAGA cult is a coalition of the brainless and the spineless, and that coalition will never go away,” Costas, 71, explained.
“Trump and what he represents must be repudiated,” he added.
