For reasons that most adults will forever ponder with childlike wonder, Donald Trump felt the need to get into it a bit last week with Maine Governor Janet Mills over transgender rights. The exchange between Trump and Mills – a necessary predicate to Don Jr. getting nailed on X – centered on Trump’s February 5th executive order aimed at barring transgender athletes from competing in girls’ and women’s sports under his administration’s interpretation of Title IX—defining “sex” as biological sex assigned at birth, not gender identity. Per Grok’s rundown:
Trump singled out Mills, asking if Maine would comply. Maine’s Principals’ Association had already said it wouldn’t, citing the state’s Human Rights Act, which protects against gender identity discrimination. Mills replied she’d follow “state and federal law,” implying resistance to Trump’s order. Trump pushed back, saying, “We are the federal law,” and threatened to cut Maine’s federal funding if it didn’t fall in line. Mills shot back, “We’re going to follow the law, sir. We’ll see you in court.” Trump welcomed the challenge, saying, “Good, I’ll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one,” and added a jab: “Enjoy your life after governor because I don’t think you’ll be in elected politics.”
That is Donald Trump for you, having to have the last shot. Though the media made a big deal out of Mills standing up to Trump, she primarily just held her ground, saying the minimum. She did well. But it sure became a thing.
Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds. Gov Mills: See you in court
It wasn’t bad at all – pretty good, actually, just not quite as big a joust as the media had made it to be. Still, it was far more than the Trump family can take because they like it when other pols are so cowed that they cannot respond at all. So Mills’s response was an afront to God and all that is right in Trump world. As you know, nothing is ever too small or too adult for the Trumps to let go. And so when Don Jr. found the world’s most innocuous “drag” video from 2022 – there is no conceivable way that anyone would see this as a drag dance, more just a fun party with people role-playing, he couldn’t seem to resist. Here is Junior’s post of Gov. Mills dancing:
The clip shows Janet Mills at a Halloween drag show at the Pumpkin Bal in Portland on October 29, 2022. The 77-year-old can be seAnd en wearing a Wonder Woman T-shirt and a cape as she dances on stage.
Is this really what the people of Maine want in their Governor??? What an absolute clown 🤡🤡🤡 https://t.co/nXojnls2jT

And so now the floor is clear to print the biggest “Own” on X in a long long long time. Rep. Frost is “Maxwell Frost,” (Below) our first Gen Z member of Congress, a 25 year old from Florida, a Democrat – of course, and a guy who knows how to bring the comedy with exquisite timing and delivery. In response to the Don Jr. tweet above, Rep. Frost posted:
And here’s your dad pretending to give head on stage. https://t.co/syOBBPbmZE pic.twitter.com/lJiqKRpFSI

That is a member of Congress ladies and gentlemen! And that’s also the single greatest “own” available across all the land right now. Brought to you as a service from Zoom! It took a bit to set up but I promised you the best on X and we delivered. That was sensational. “And here’s your dad… ”
God Bless: I can be reached at [email protected] and on Twitter – X at @JasonMiciak, and now please follow me on Bluesky.

My answer to orange scum junior is ABSOLUTELY! I love to see anyone have a good time dancing and she’s a helluva better dancer than trumpty dumpty. That ridiculous air punching and rocking back and forth makes me gag.
I’m disabled. I haven’t been able to dance like that in ten freaking years. I’m lost in admiration she’s got those kinds of moves even into her seventies! Trumpy sways and twists a few inches and wave his arms a bit. Anything more and he’d fall over like a wet orange sack of shit which come to think of it is pretty much what he is. There’s a reason I so often call him a flaming orange human shaped rectum. But I LOVE the rejoinder clip not showing Trump trying to pretend he can dance and instead shows him imitating giving head. And there is NO doubt that’s what he was doing! That clip should be shown regularly.
With all that energy, one assumes he is imagining a partner? Someone Russian perhaps?
Russian, South African…
Congressman Frost is terrific!
Governor Mills can tear up the dance floor, unlike Trump who can’t move his legs.
