Olympic gold medalists Simone Biles and Megan Rapinoe were awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Thursday, June 7, 2022.
Jenna Ellis (photo, left; bio here), a small-time lawyer on the Trump legal team that tried to overturn the 2020 election in the courts, instantly lashed out. “Fittingly, Biden awarded his presidential medals to fellow losers, Biles and Rapinoe,” she said (story here).
What kind of angry, embittered person reacts in this way to someone else receiving an honor?
A loser, that’s who. Ellis lost all her election cases. In sticking up for Trump’s lies, she lost her credibility and respectability, too. She also may lose her license to practice law.
Biles and Rapinoe are champions in more ways than one. If Ellis wants to see a loser, all she has to do is look in a mirror.
