It's not only attacking one of the most vulnerable demographics in the country, but it's attacking one of the most vulnerable demographics in the country over the most pettiest bullshit I can imagine. She's upset because she didn't get 5th place.
It's not even that; she got fifth place. She's upset that she had to share fifth place with a trans woman. I also feel the need to point out that it was her last competitive event, so it's not exactly like competitive swimming is a vital component of her life that she kept doing moving forward. She's just a vile, terrible person who realized she could make a career as a right-wing grifter.
Whi h she genuinely lost, but it was close enough the judges had to check slow-motion, so she was wronged.
