Fired actor who called Joe's tranny a "dude" now calls tranny on his TV show "gorgeous"

General Hospital‘s Ingo Rademacher has apologized for not crossing out the word “dude” when he re-posted a tweet from a conservative commentator in which the word was used in reference to Rachel Levine, the U.S. assistant secretary for health.

In a new Instagram video, Rademacher, who might have already exited the soap, addresses a report in Deadline today that two of his General Hospital co-stars, including trans actor Cassandra James, had issued strong condemnations of Rademacher’s Instagram post over the weekend that copied a tweet in which a conservative podcaster labeled Levine a “dude.”

The original tweet from podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey mocked the notion that Levine could be considered “an empowering woman” while Winsome Sears, Virginia’s recently elected Republican lieutenant governor, who is Black, could be called a “white supremacist.”

Rademacher now says he retweeted the image to point out the “hypocrisy of the Left Wing media,” but that he should have crossed out the word “dude” from the original post, adding, “I don’t think its okay to call a transgender an empowered woman because where does that leave women?”

In a direct apology to GH‘s James, Rademacher says, “Cassandra, I apologize to you sincerely. I think you’re an absolute talent and you’re very beautiful as well. I don’t think a transphobic man would say that. I think you’re absolutely gorgeous, I really do.”
