"Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face," Moulton told The New York Times after the election. "I have two little girls, I don't want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I'm supposed to be afraid to say that." This quote encapsulates Moulton's rationale behind his controversial remarks and highlights the tension between political correctness and open dialogue within the Democratic Party.
Committee Chair Liz Bradt told the paper that the group is actively looking for people to 'run against him and win.' She has heard from 'several' people who are interested in taking a crack at Moulton, who has represented Massachusetts' 6th District since 2015. He just ran unopposed, securing another two-year term." This indicates the party's strong reaction to Moulton's comments and their willingness to challenge him.
