President Trump has issued a record number of executive orders since the day of his inauguration. He expects his orders to be followed and when they are not, he is ready to take action. This is not the President’s first term and he has learned a lot from his past. He and his team know they must stay on top of things or they won’t get done.
One of the executive orders the President signed called for the banning of trans athletes from participating in women’s sports. You might think that this would be something that most people could support. Well, Democrats in Maine are not following the President’s executive order and this has drawn attention.

In the clip Trump said,
“I heard men are still playing in Maine,” Trump said to a gathering of Republican governors in Washington on Thursday.
“I hate to tell you this, but we’re not going to give them any federal money, they are still saying ‘We want men to play in women’s sports’ and I cannot believe that they’re doing that… So, we’re not going to give them any federal funding, none whatsoever, until they clean that up.”

Trans athletes competing in women’s sports is something the radical left has been pushing for years. Most sensible Americans want fairness. A 2023 Gallup poll said, ‘69% believe people should compete based on their sex assigned at birth, not gender identity.’
