Anti-Woke Candidate Once Backed Transgender Rights

Pennsylvania U.S. Senate candidate David McCormick (R) claims he’s running to challenge “the weakness and wokeness that you see across the country,” but the Daily Beast finds he championed inclusive policies while leading an investment firm.

“As the former CEO of the largest hedge fund in the world, Bridgewater Associates, McCormick boasted about his company’s inclusiveness, which extended to full paid coverage for gender transition surgery and earned a perfect score as an LGBTQ-friendly workplace. McCormick also wrote at length about Bridgewater’s diversity and inclusion programs more broadly, which he took credit for spearheading and nurturing.”
