President Donald Trump suggested on Saturday that keeping biological men out of women’s and girls’ sports is a problem without a brainer and that the margin is broad among voters.
Trump sat down with Outkicks Clay Travis at Air Force One to talk about this issue among others before the president participated in the NCAA Wrestling Championships.

“I think it’s a 90-10 problem, maybe more,” Trump said. “But I notice it’s a 90-10 when the voting boats closed … Many people don’t talk about it. I don’t know why. I think they make a mistake of not talking about it. It’s such a simple thing it’s so basic.”
Trump signed “No Men In Women’s Sports” executive order in early February, which prevented biological men from competing against women and girls in sports. The order required the possibility of federal funding being removed from public schools if the rules were still in place.
The president had a spat with Maine Government Janet Mills over the question as her state and a few others have defied the order.

He said earlier Saturday he had not “heard” from Mills since their spat on the subject.
“While the state of Maine has apologized for their governor’s strong but completely incorrect, statement of men playing in women’s sports, while we have not heard from the Governor’s Conference at the White House Governor’s conference, and she is the one that matters in such cases,” Trump wrote in a post about the social.
“That’s why we need a full -dropped apology from the governor herself, and a statement that she will never make such an illegal challenge for the federal government again before this case can be settled. I am sure she will be able to make it quite easy. Thank you for your attention to this case and make America great again !!! DJ”
Maine, according to the US Ministry of Agriculture, accepted to comply with Trump’s executive order to keep transnry athletes out of women’s sports after much public back and forth.

The University of Maine System (USM), a network of eight public universities in Maine, was subject to a temporary break in funding from the USDA last week during a continuous match between the state and the federal government on trans -cluttering in women’s and girls’ sports. The financing was reintroduced only a few days later.
