TBS talk show host Samantha Bee attacked President Donald Trump over a report that the administration will move to define gender as biological in a segment Wednesday, saying that Trump was a just a “flesh sac of coins, gunk, and porn DVDs.”
“It’s really something that this Dumpo has the gall to tell trans and gender non-conforming people that their gender identity isn’t authentic. He doesn’t even have a true self,” Samantha Bee said.
“Deep down he’s just a flesh sack of coins, gunk and porn DVDs. If he ever did actual self-reflection, he would disintegrate into a pile of dry, dusty cum.”
The TBS host continued, “I don’t know why it’s so hard for Republicans to understand that gender and sex are two different things. Gender identity is a person’s internal sense of being a man, a woman, some combination of both, or neither. Sex is that sloshy thing your wife hates doing with you.”
Bee also said that if the Trump administration is trying to marginalize transgender people and that cisgender people need to stand up for them.
“Cis people, we need to stand with them! Transgender people are real, and normal, and they deserve so much more than this and hey, if Donald Trump really, really wants to pretend like someone doesn’t exist–pick Ted Cruz. That’s how I get through the day,” she said.
The 49-year-old comedian wasn’t the only Hollywood figure to attack the Trump administration over their desire to define gender by biology.
CBS funnyman Stephen Colbert also went after Trump, telling his audience that the decision was “random cruelty” and that “gender is clearly a spectrum.”
Pop star Lady Gaga said that the administration was “driven by ignorance” in their trans decision.
“The government may be living in an alternate universe, but we as a society & culture know who we are and know our truth and must stick together and raise our voices so we can educate them about gender identities,” she said.

The “Poker Face” singer also said, “While today you might feel unheard or unseen, know that this is not the reality of humanity. This is another display of leadership being driven by ignorance.”
