Trump: "We are the federal law"
Governor Mills: "See you in court"

At some point judges are going to have to decide which side they are on here.

Reposted from Aaron Rupar

TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here?

JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here

TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply?

JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law

T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

Good for Gov. Mills. “As Maine goes, so goes the nation!”

noisyfearless.bsky.social•1 day ago

She made me proud to be a Mainer today. "See you in court." F yeah! #DumpTrump

And me as a former Mainer! 🌲

At some point, we need to stop hoping the courts will save us. It will require the use of force to remove the entire administration and GOP enablers from DC.

He's such a craven asshole with everything. Like he can't even just be a dick by saying yeah I'll see you in court. Instead he also has to basically say she sucks.

He is a human being with no redeeming characteristics whatsoever.

He is as thin skinned as Musk and also he canʻt stop himself when he has a chance to speak disrespectfully to a woman (the Governor of Maine).

chipster56.bsky.social•1 day ago

Why did the governors not walk out with her?

Listen to him. He's a mother F mob boss.
The GOPQ isn't afraid of his cult. They are afraid of him.

He controls them through coercion, threats to their loved ones, blackmail and/or promise of ill gotten gain

The GOPQ fears Trump. Not their voters. NOT his cult.

What we have taking place in this country is a #coup - An ACT OF WAR - against our #Constitution, by domestic enemies.

If #Democrats and #Republicans understood that very #Constitution to which they swore allegiance, both #DonaldTrump and #ElonMusk would be in custody!

I don't know, getting to cite their own opinions in a marquee decision striking down half of Obama's biggest achievement as unconstitutionally coercive of states seems like it should be an easy win for those principled conservatives.

This is surreal.

Why is everybody else in the room just silently sitting there while witnessing a mobster shakedown?

they are all spineless but the Maine guy!

makani-noho.bsky.social•1 day ago

Itʻs a woman...and often it is the women who are calling out this dick.

sherrimcgrath.bsky.social•1 day ago

LMFAO I just noticed I typed guy up there, I knew it was a woman it just flew out of me like that!

sherrimcgrath.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh I know, it is amazing how men do not seem capable of standing up to him to his face!

makani-noho.bsky.social•1 day ago

Itʻs biological... like the chimpanzees. The men are used to the idea of the alpha dog. Women are the ones who give birth to all the dogs so they arenʻt impressed (if you catch my drift).

prrh.bsky.social•1 day ago

Women are collegial and can multi-task so they don't need an alpha.

rrkennison.bsky.social•1 day ago

This clash sets Maine state law, which Gov. Mills has been following by not banning trans women from playing women's sports, against an Executive Order, which is not law, despite Trump's wishing desperately it was, but merely interpretation of existing law. Real question is: Can he withhold funding?

Bet she gets her money.

FWIW, part of what he's doing is seeing how far he can go. He really couldn't care less if the state gets money or not. He now knows he can go this far and someone will push back for real and in public. In short, he's polling...in his way.

What an embarrassment

makani-noho.bsky.social•1 day ago

What a dick. The other Democratic governors should have walked out. Also that "we are the Federal Law" is bullshit.

walteriv.bsky.social•1 day ago

He started to say “I’m the Federal law” but caught himself in time to say “we”

cubavenger.bsky.social•1 day ago

That part. 😬

snapthejapanese.bsky.social•1 day ago

It is hilarious to me that he won the 2024 election by what, a 1.5% margin and calls it a "mandate from God," but lost Maine to Harris by 7% and claims he "did very well there." He really just NEEDS to hear it, true or not, doesn't he? hahahahaha

adventgirl.bsky.social•1 day ago

Trump sounds like a thin-skinned street hustler. "We are the state and federal law" He just cannot abide being challenged especially ially by women. What a numnskull!

Being a vacuous thug and a mafia-style bully is no way to lead a nation.

midwesternrosarian.bsky.social•1 day ago

“We are the federal law” - let that sink in. He’s not saying federal executive power is theirs. He is usurping Congress and the judicial branch to claim ALL federal powers.

Donald Trump DOES NOT MAKE OUR LAWS!

thewiserose.bsky.social•1 day ago

I just sent Mills a message via the governor's website and thanked her for having a spine. How refreshing!

mrslibrt.bsky.social•1 day ago

Goes to show you how incredibly insecure he is. No confident person would ever behave like that. He desperately needs to prove that he’s the big guy.

jpmcjefferson.bsky.social•19 hours ago

TRUMP SHOWS HIS TRUE COLORS. An arrogant, angry, bullying Trump says, "I'm, we are the Federal law..." while publicly threatening the Maine Governor. He said Maine would not get ANY Federal funding, & she would have no future in "elected politics" if she didn't comply his EO.
