NCAA Basketball Champ Coach Calls Trump A ‘Fascist’ Who Should Be ‘Removed’

Muffet McGraw, who coached the Notre Dame women’s basketball team to two national championships, is blowing the whistle on Donald Trump.

McGraw wrote a scathing rebuke of the president in light of the events in Minneapolis, calling him a “fascist” who should be “removed” from the White House.

On X, formerly Twitter, McGraw harkened to the killings of Trayvon Martin, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.

She then pivoted to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, protesters of Trump’s immigration crackdown before they were gunned down by federal officers deployed by the president. Video evidence has not supported attempts by the administration to demonize the victims.

“We no longer believe in the rule of law, or in the principle that no one is above it — because under this administration, the opposite has proven true,” McGraw wrote. “Justice is no longer blind; it is bought with money and protected by power.”

“We need real change,” she continued. ”… What we need is a reckoning in Washington. Until we remove the fascist in the White House, we will continue to watch our democracy crumble.”

McGraw led the Irish to titles in 2001 and 2018 before retiring in 2020.

The basketball world has heard from others as tragedy unfolded in the Twin Cities.

Victor Wembanyama of the NBA’s San Antonio Spurs said he was “horrified.”

“I think that it’s crazy that some people might make it seem or make it sound like it’s acceptable, like the murder of civilians is acceptable,” he told reporters.

The New York Knicks’ Karl-Anthony Towns, who previously played for the Minnesota Timberwolves, wrote on X:

“What is happening in the Twin Cities and the Great North Star State is heartbreaking to witness. These events have cost lives and shaken families — and we must call for accountability, transparency, and protections for all people. This moment demands that we reflect honestly on what our values truly are. My thoughts, prayers, and deepest condolences are with the families of Renée Good and Alex Pretti. … I stand the people of with Minnesota.”
