Trump Rips Maine Governor Over Her Decision To Allow Men To Take Part In Women’s Sports


Maine Governor Donald Trump

Donald Trump has publicly called out Maine governor Janet Mills over her refusal to comply with his executive order keeping men out of women’s sports.

A heated exchange between the US president and the Maine governor was aired Friday on live television.

Infowars reports: President Trump & Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D) clashed during the Governor’s Working Session event at the White House Friday over her refusal to comply with his executive order that keeps men out of women’s sports.

Full exchange:

Trump: “The NCAA has complied immediately by the way, that’s good… Is Maine here? The governor of Maine? Are you not going to comply with it?”

Mills: “I’m complying with state and federal law.”

Trump: “We are the federal law … You better do it, because you’re not going to get any federal funding at all if you don’t. And by the way, your population, even though it’s somewhat liberal although I did very well there, your population doesn’t want men playing in women’s sports. So you better comply because otherwise you’re not getting any federal funding —“

Mills: “I’ll see you in court.”

Trump: “Good I’ll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one. Enjoy your life after governor because I don’t think you’ll be in elected politics.”

Mills has since issued a statement after the exchange.

“If the President attempts to unilaterally deprive Maine school children of the benefit of Federal funding, my Administration and the Attorney General will take all appropriate and necessary legal action to restore that funding and the academic opportunity it provides. The State of Maine will not be intimidated by the President’s threats.”
