Elizabeth Warren has plummeted in the polls among Democrats. Not all that long ago, she was in first place in Iowa and New Hampshire. Now she is in fourth place in both states. Her collapse in the polls seems to be causing Liz to thrash about looking for some far left new issue that can raise her back up in the public's esteem. It surely isn't working; Warren is just looking foolish.
Here's a good example: Warren told a crowd in Iowa yesterday that men in prison who identify as women need to be moved to women's prisons. Here's how she put it to the onlookers in Marshalltown, “We have to stop putting trans women who are incarcerated into prisons with men where they are at risk. It is our responsibility,”
Think about this for a moment. The subject here is people who are biologically male but who identify as women. So we could have a 25 year old man who has the size and strength of a man of that age but who thinks he is a woman. Warren is worried that this guy is going to get hurt in a male prison. She wants to put this person into a women's prison where there are biological females who are much smaller, lighter and weaker than this 25 year old man. In other words, Warren wants to put a biological male into lockup with women that the guy could easily dominate, beat, or even rape (if he decided that he was, once again, a man.)
What do you think a jury would say in a case brought by a woman who was beaten in prison by this 25 year old guy who claimed to identify as a woman. Would a jury find that putting such a person in a female jail was gross negligence? After all, who thinks it makes sense to put a violent prisoner into a position where he/she could easily dominate all the other prisoners?
Look, this kind of idea may play well in a faculty lounge at some isolated ultra-left college. In the real world, though, Warren is proving how out of touch with reality she truly is.
