Matt Walsh credits Elon Musk and X in spotlighting harm of transgender procedures

Published December 7, 2024 6:00am ET



Daily Wire commentator Matt Walsh credited Elon Musk and his revamping of X for allowing conservatives to showcase the impact that transgender procedures have on children, saying the billionaire was one of many factors that have played a role in shifting the public’s opinion.

The Washington Examiner asked Walsh on Wednesday if he believes Musk and the recently formed Department of Government Efficiency would be able to aid the incoming Trump administration in banning transgender procedures for children, something President-elect Donald Trump vowed to achieve in his campaign. While Walsh argued that the DOGE could “probably” help with that, he contended that Musk has already contributed “in a huge way” in allowing people to spotlight how transgender medication affects children on the social media platform X.
