The New York Post covered Trump’s statement on Medina Spirit and shared these details:

President Donald Trump called Medina Spirit a “junky” on Sunday, after the Kentucky Derby winner’s trainer revealed the horse tested positive for an illegal substance.

“So now even our Kentucky Derby winner, Medina Spirit, is a junky. This is emblematic of what is happening to our Country,” Trump said in a posting on his blog site.

“The whole world is laughing at us as we go to hell on our Borders, our fake Presidential Election, and everywhere else!” the former commander-in-chief said.

Bob Baffert revealed earlier in the morning that Medina Spirit tested positive for betamethasone in a post-race drug test.

The horse had 11 picograms of the anti-inflammatory above the legal limit in Kentucky racing.

The old saying goes “cheaters never win” but it looks like in America nowadays cheaters get big rewards in the sports world and the political arena.

What a shame!
