The New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs are set to face off in the NBA Finals starting tomorrow night. As is tradition, Texas Governor Greg Abbott tried having some good-natured fun over the matchup, saying how the Spurs are going to 'dunk on the Knicks' like Texas 'dunks on New York.'
Spurs about to dunk on Knicks like Texas has been dunking on New York.

Because Kathy Hochul can't take a joke, she decided to make what we're sure she thought was a brilliant point.
BREAKING: Greg Abbott comes out for men and women competing on the same court. https://t.co/wUvr7kmIPQ

She not only can't take a joke, but she's also not very bright.
Her Press Office account is also cringe.

Yikes.
If she wants to play that card, fine, let's play that card. The image Abbott shared showed a wheelchair bound man absolutely bodying a woman at basketball. Which proves the point of those of us sane enough to oppose men in women's sports. Men have a physical advantage over women, even when those men pretend they're women.
Looks like both men AND women are fleeing your state in record numbers and moving to…

She's the worst.
Oh so NOW you acknowledge the men you call "transwomen" are actually just,.,men ??

Yes, she is. She didn't mean to do that, either, of course.
So you admit there are only two genders?? And on the first day of pride month?!?! pic.twitter.com/JeRGDf1i7Y

Hochul's really batting a thousand here, to mix our sports references.
Your joke isn’t funny, Gov. Hochul. Women are having opportunities taken away by men in women’s sports.

Every American should be against that.
Democrats don't oppose that because Democrats don't care if our women and girls, who've spent years training, win. They just care that their preferred constituency gets to play and ruin everything.
When you accidentally agree with science and admit trans women are men https://t.co/GKSAnpc0Df

She didn't think this through. The only question that remains is: does Hochul delete this embarrassing post? And if so, how quickly?
