It's a profile of, I think, what might be the main character of this movement that has dominated American politics.

So who is the face of this movement, Madison?

The poster child, the it girl, the Regina George of this movement is the 24-year-old who clapped longer than anyone else at a White House ceremony in February during Hail to the Chief as Trump walked in.

Riley Gaines.

Right there, like off to the right of just the center of the frame in a resplendent white outfit is Riley Gates.

She's got her real MAGA look going.

She's got the full face of makeup, long, wavy blonde hair, and she's really become so recognizable over the last three years, at least if you're in the Fox News audience.

Thank you very much.

This is a nice crowd, isn't it, huh?

So have I. Actually, it was so ridiculous.

But here we are.

So this is Donald Trump preparing to sign his executive order keeping men out of women's sports, a threat to defund schools that let trans girls play on the girls' team.

Which means that the girls who are assembled there in the front row wearing their uniforms and their medals, these are the people that Donald Trump and Riley Gaines are saving.

They're protecting them, these victims of the trans movement.

Right.

Donald Trump is here to protect women is the really clear message of this photo op.

And for people who don't know what Riley Gaines' lore is, her origin story, Donald Trump is very helpfully here to fill us in on the injustice that Riley Gaines suffered when she was a college swimmer.

Appreciate it.

Riley Gaines, you may also recall from the time that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dunked on her because of the whole thing where she, you know, actually just finished in fifth, Madison.

Yeah, she came in fifth.
