Maine Governor and Trump Clash Over Trans Rights

Gov. Janet Mills of Maine threatened legal action after President Trump said he would withhold funding to her state unless she complied with the executive order banning transgender athletes from women’s sports.

“The NCAA has complied immediately, by the way. That’s good, but I understand Maine — is Maine here? The governor of Maine.” “Yeah, I’m here.” “Are you not going to comply with it?” “I’m complying with state and federal laws.” “Well, we are the federal law. Well, you better do it. 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 you better comply because otherwise you’re not getting any federal funding.” “See you in court.” “Every state — good, I’ll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one.”
