She tied with a trans swimmer for 5th place. During the ceremony, they didn’t have two 5th places trophies so they had one hold 5th and one hold 6th. She held the 6th and threw a fit about it.
Cardio sports such as swimming and running are actually more difficult for transgender women Strength based sports tend to be easier for them.
I really encourage people to watch the Last Week Tonight segment on trans sports. It’s really good and it specifically calls out this exact incident.
My favorite part is when trump says he could beat her in a race.
the ultimate humiliation.
HAHAHA SHOTS FIRED all around!!!
Look at the pic. She knows.
she looks like she just got a massive whiff of his diaper in the same moment she got hella insulted
We knew he couldn't help himself at the opportunity for more sexual assault, but damn guy, during a race?
Why are they getting a trophy for 5th and 6th? Is that normal for swimming.
Yes shes no doubt a good swimmer, I've just never seen a 5th place trophy.
I think it was an NCAA Championship event, but I don’t know much about swimming competitions.
