President Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened to withhold federal funding to California because a transgender athlete “won everything” at a recent competition.<\/p>\n

The president didn’t share their name or which sport they competed in.<\/p>\n

“This week a transitioned Male athlete, at a major event, won ‘everything,’ and is now qualified to compete in the ‘State Finals’ next weekend. As a Male, he was a less than average competitor. As a Female, this transitioned person is practically unbeatable. THIS IS NOT FAIR, AND TOTALLY DEMEANING TO WOMEN AND GIRLS,” Trump wrote on his social media platform.<\/p>\n

Trump said “large-scale” federal funding will be held back, “maybe permanently,” if the state allows the athlete to continue competing in women’s sports.<\/p>\n
