In a recent interview with podcast host Joe Rogan, Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance made controversial remarks suggesting that White upper- and middle-class children may be incentivized to identify as transgender to gain admission to elite colleges.
Vance stated, 'If you are a middle-class or upper middle-class White parent and the only thing that you care about is whether your child goes into Harvard or Yale, like obviously, that pathway has become a lot harder for a lot of upper middle-class kids. But the one way that those people can participate in the DEI bureaucracy in this country is to be trans.'
