Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host of the week, Desi Lydic, declared on Thursday that Speaker Mike Johnson and Rep. Nancy Mace appear to believe that their mandate after Republicans won all three elected parts of the government is to make transgender Rep.-elect Sarah McBride’s life more difficult, as Johnson recently affirmed that sex-based restrooms are what those words mean. Lydic was not happy at the idea that Democrats lost the election because they’ve gone too woke, “We've all heard the official story of the 2024 election: According to the pundits, the Democrats were obsessed with woke they/them politics that didn't connect with voters, while Republicans were talking about real issues that affect people day-to-day. So, now Republicans are in charge of both houses of Congress, so let's hear about the economy.”     In a local news clip, a reporter declared, “On Capitol Hill, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson took aim at Democrat Sarah McBride, the first trans member of Congress. He barred transgender people from using the Capitol complex bathrooms that do not align with the sex assigned at birth.” Names are assigned at birth; sex is just a fact of biological life. Nonsensical babble aside, Lydic lamented, “Okay, forget about the economy. I guess the national mandate was making it harder for this one woman to poop at work.” She also claimed, “Sarah McBride, the first trans congresswoman, hasn't even started work yet, and she already has to run around the corner to Starbucks to pee.” Fact-check: False. Every member of Congress has a private bathroom in their office. According to Lydic, the only reason this is even a story is because “of one congresswoman: Nancy Mace, the Republican from South Carolina, where things must be running so smoothly that she can devote all her energy to this.” After a trio of clips Mace posted of herself to social media, Lydic responded, “I don't love her bigotry there, but I do respect her dedication to getting her steps in. I listen to podcasts, but bullying your co-workers is also a choice. Honestly, transphobic Cruella de Vil’s logic might backfire here because all her drama is ironically affirming Sarah McBride's gender. There is nothing that defines the female experience more than starting a new job and a woman at work just decides she hates you. And Nancy Mace really seems to hate Sarah McBride. It's like it's her full-time job.” The whole premise behind the segment was odd. If voters think Democrats went too far with wokeism, naturally the GOP would seek to push back while also focusing on the economy. Here is a transcript for the November 21 show: Comedy Central The Daily Show 11/21/2024 11:02 PM ET DESI LYDIC: We've all heard the official story of the 2024 election: According to the pundits, the Democrats were obsessed with woke they/them politics that didn't connect with voters, while Republicans were talking about real issues that affect people day-to-day. So, now Republicans are in charge of both houses of Congress, so let's hear about the economy. LOCAL NEWS REPORTER: On Capitol Hill, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson took aim at Democrat Sarah McBride, the first trans member of Congress. He barred transgender people from using the Capitol complex bathrooms that do not align with the sex assigned at birth. LYDIC: Hmm. Okay, forget about the economy. I guess the national mandate was making it harder for this one woman to poop at work. And by the way, who appointed Mike Johnson as the king of bathrooms? LOCAL NEWS REPORTER 2: Under House rules, the Speaker has general control of facilities in the chamber. LYDIC: Oh! I guess he's the king of bathrooms. Pardon me, your majesty! Government is weird sometimes. This guy is second in line for the presidency and he also has to refill the soap dispensers? Anyway. So now, Sarah McBride, the first trans congresswoman, hasn't even started work yet, and she already has to run around the corner to Starbucks to pee. And she is handling this situation more calmly than I would when I have to get to the bathroom. … LYDIC: But the point is, Sarah McBride is not the one pushing this issue. The whole thing started because of one congresswoman: Nancy Mace, the Republican from South Carolina, where things must be running so smoothly that she can devote all her energy to this. NANCY MACE: I'm going to fight like hell for women and girls to keep men out of women's private spaces, to include bathrooms, restrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms, you name it. You are not welcome. If being a feminist makes me an extremist or a bigot or a monster, I am totally here for it. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Come at me, bro, or bros, in this case. LYDIC: I don't love her bigotry there, but I do respect her dedication to getting her steps in. I listen to podcasts, but bullying your co-workers is also a choice. Honestly, transphobic Cruella de Vil’s logic might backfire here because all her drama is ironically affirming Sarah McBride's gender. There is nothing that defines the female experience more than starting a new job and a woman at work just decides she hates you. And Nancy Mace really seems to hate Sarah McBride. It's like it's her full-time job.
