Donald Trump called out the governor of Maine the other day, and he showed why he is the Big Dog!

Watch it here.

Democratic Governor Janet Mills told Trump she would "follow state and federal law" when Trump suggested to her she would be wise to obey the Federal directive to not let men compete against women in sports. Trump responded "we are the federal law" at which point Mills said "see you in court". Trump welcomed it "that should be an easy win for us...enjoy your retirement because you won't be going anywhere further in politics."

Trump also rightly pointed out to her that while Maine is a liberal state most of the voters do not want men pretending to be women in women's sports.

Mills apparently doesn't understand the Supremacy Clause in the Constitution; when there are conflicts between state and Federal law the Feds prevail. She has no ground to stand on in her insistence on defying the Title IX rules. And she is stupid enough to think this is the hill to die on.

This is much like the Boston Police Commisioner I wrote about recently. Said Commish claimed he was following state law and refusing to work with ICe, but state law is subject to Federal law and if this guy actually knew the law he would know he has no legal grounds to protect "sanctuary city" status for illegals. The DOJ should send him into early retirement - as they will Governor Mills.

(BTW her name is fitting; a mill was an old plastic coin that was used to pay sales taxes and were almost worthless. I have a couple around the house here. Everyone hated mills, and as inflation made pennies next to worthless - and they are now going to be gone - the mill vanished into history. I doubt young people have ever heard of them, just like the good Governor.)
