Trump wants us to know Biden loves transgender (transgenic) animals [1]

It's hard to believe how crazy Donald Trump is. He started rattling off last night about programs that were using money to do very strange things.
He now has an article up on Whitehouse.gov called: Yes, Biden Spent Millions on Transgender Animal Experiments.
It seems that Trump has now turned into Frankenstein. I just can't figure out whether he's the doctor or the monster.
In that list of programs Trump listed last night was one that said $8 million had been spent on making mice transgenic. It's not quite that simple.
Mice are used for testing all kinds of medical and surgical practices. We use mice so we don't have to use human beings or higher level animals.
Let's just look at the first item on his list.
A mouse model to test the effects of gender affirming hormone therapy on HIV vaccine induced immune responses.
HIV hasn't gone away. They're still all kinds of things that react to it including vaccines and therapies. The "gender-affirming hormone" is one that is in the human body naturally, so testing for the reaction to it makes perfect sense. The problem is that Musk and Trump are trying to act like they're scientists. They're not. Neither am I, but I can read into this what it was for.
Gender affirming hormone testosterone therapy on breast cancer risk and treatment outcomes.
Again, it's a hormone that is in the body. It's just being given for a different reason. Checking up for whether it adds to breast cancer risk is perfectly a good reason to research it.
There's four more studies that are listed as part of this $8 million study that Trump felt we just had to know about.
Trump felt he was being laughed at, so he had to respond to the questions that were asked him after he said it. Of course, nobody has had a chance to ask him the questions, so he thought he was heading the problem off at the pass.
Nowhere is the word "transgender" used. The only thing that gives you any idea is because they call it a gender affirming hormone. Hormones are things that are generated by our own bodies. How do you make a hormone? You do a good job in bed.
I said for some time that I thought Trump had gone off the deep end, but now he's in an infinity pool. I'm sure there's more to come.
