Ever since she entered the WNBA, Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark has been enormously popular amongst conservative sports fans, becoming a sort of lightning rod for political and social discussion. However, Clark is now facing some criticism after she declined to take a stand on the trans sports debate.
Following Sunday night's game against the Minnesota Lynx, Clark spoke to the media for the first time since teammate Sophie Cunningham spoke out against transgender women competing in women's sports. However, Clark chose not to take a stand on the issue, and prominent conservative commentator Megyn Kelly is not happy.
Last month, Cunningham sparked widespread controversy when she publicly shared her controversial stance on transgender athletes. During a recent interview for an ESPN profile, Cunningham was asked about her political beliefs, including the "MAGA Barbie" nickname that has followed her in recent months. In her response, the Fever guard addressed the issue of transgender athletes competing in women's sports. "I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I'm like, 'I never once said that,'" she told ESPN. "I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn't have to go against biological men."
From the same side that used to shout 'Shut up and Dribble!' when woke pro athletes like LeBron James spoke out on politics, comes Megyn Kelly and this lame shit. After all, Caitlin Clark is a 25yo basketball player, already a polarizing figure from jump due to her race, skillset, sexuality and the fact that she plays in a sports league that caters to the woke mob. In other words, she already has it hard enough trying to concentrate on her job. But leave it to the Matt Walsh's and Megyn Kelly's of the world to pressure force Clark into being a social justice warrior with all the virtue signaling, culture wars, media scrutiny and toxicity that comes with it. In other words, the poster girl for conservatism. Nah, f-ck that. Caitlin's much better off just shutting up and dribbling.
