14. It's a media driven narrative

That is a tempest in a teapot. We need to reframe these talking points.
I completely understand that the reflex is to attack it as bigotry but that tactic is clearly not working.

The better approach, in my opinion, is to force them defend their position of it being a problem and then redirect.
"trans athletes. There are literally a couple million athletes in high school, select, semi-pro and pro sports in the US. I think there are like 40 or so trans male and female athletes. Interestingly enough the majority of trans athletes are trans males. In total tt's a small fraction of one percent.
You are, very literally, spending hundreds of millions of dollars to argue for the existence of bigfoot. Why aren't you spending as much time, effort and money on performance enhancing drugs? That is much more of a real problem than this but not a single politician is spending a penny on that issue or a single second on it for a campaign speech"
That's literally off the top of my head but you have to put this back on the to prove how this is an issue needing this level of attention and money over other issues.
