The two collided over the state’s decision not to change its genital participation policy to comply with the president’s executive order to keep biological men out of girls and women’s sports. Trump threatened to draw federal funding to Main’s schools if the state did not comply.
On Tuesday night, Trump received high cheer from his colleagues when he mentioned the executive order. He shouted Payton McNabb’s story of being severely wounded when a transgender athlete spilled a ball in her face during a volleyball competition in high school. She was unable to end her high school career on the field.
“Schools will kick men from the girls’ team or they lose all federal funding,” Trump said.

Bill to prevent men from women’s sports receiving no support from Senate Dems: Who were they?
Libby wrote on X that Mills should be “absolutely panic.”
“Her failures have made Maine Ground Zero in the fight to protect girls ‘sports. President Trump sends a clear message to her and other leaders nationwide: Our girls’ voices will be heard and their rights will be respected.”
Trump’s remarks came a day after the Senate Democrats blocked the protection of women and girls in the sports law against moving on in the Senate. Republicans needed 60 votes to overcome the Filibuster, but received only 51.

No Senate Democrat voted for the bill supported by Senator Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala.
