President Donald Trump and El Salvador President Naive Buquere share a common basis for banning biological men from women's sports – highlighting increased administration integrity in coordinating efforts to curb illegal immigration to the United States
“Do you allow men to play with women's sports? Do you allow men to box your women?” Trump asked Bukere from his oval office on Monday. Trump's comments came after discussing immigration and implementing a “common sense” policy.
“It's violence,” Bukel responded.
“It's abusive… But we think men can play in women's sports, so there are people who fight death,” Trump said.

Bukele then said that despite past efforts to promote women's rights and prevent abuse, these initiatives will be “turned over” and instead perpetuated violence against women.
“I think these laws were great because there were so many men who abused women, but now some of the same people are actually trying to create new laws that allow men to abuse women, like in sports,” Bukere said. “So, in reality, that doesn't make any sense.”
Trump signed an executive order in February banning men born at birth who competed in women's sports titled “No men in women's sports.” The order prohibits men assigned to the woman's toilets from being used by birth and orders the Ministry of Education to investigate in the case of a possible violation.

In response, the National College Athletic Association (NCAA) announced that, following the guidance, it would allow only women assigned at birth to participate in women's sports.
