We don’t remember Jill Biden inviting Donald Trump to stay on at the White House after he lost the 2020 election. But the first lady was there in person to watch the women’s NCAA basketball championship, and the Associated Press is reporting that Biden wants Caitlin Clark and Iowa to join LSU at the White House. That’s not surprising at all — it’s a very Jill Biden thing.

The AP reports:
First lady Jill Biden said Monday that she wants the defeated Iowa women’s basketball team to be invited to the White House in addition to the national title winner Louisiana State University. She watched LSU’s 102-85 victory over Iowa from the stands on Sunday night.
Biden, speaking at the Colorado state capital in Denver, praised Iowa’s sportsmanship and congratulated both teams on their performance.
“I know we’ll have the champions come to the White House, we always do. So, we hope LSU will come,” she said. “But, you know, I’m going to tell Joe I think Iowa should come, too, because they played such a good game.”
Biden then waxed eloquently about Title IX, saying, “We fought so hard, right? We fought so hard. And look at where women’s sports have come today.” Yeah, they’ve become a dumping ground for average male athletes who declare they’re women. And Biden’s all for it.
This is dumb.
Apparently our idiotic, fragile society can't stand hurting people's feels with winning. https://t.co/Sd8fVmZfaf

This ain't it. If Iowa won, I doubt the White House would also be extending an invitation to LSU. How insulting. https://t.co/9RybmahRVF

"How else can we infantilalize and insult women?"

Jill Biden should also invite the refs so they can call random fouls on Iowa as LSU celebrates their victory https://t.co/GXUXH7wX7f

This cannot be real life.
If Biden slaps Black women in the face like this, well, God bless. https://t.co/Dz3eGghOGJ

Why do they need to pander to the ladies at Iowa just because they lost and they gonna do this now for every team that losses their final game to win a chip? This is embarrassing & tone deaf especially when LSU is majority black https://t.co/hY5z0AZk39

Jill, no. She didn't win. She can come when her teams wins the chip. https://t.co/wGTkKiOcPm

Why the embarrassing Iowa pander unless they are worried about the caucus? https://t.co/3pTjAbgvMc

Please do extend that invitation to both teams, and watch as both turn it down, you nitwit. https://t.co/yNRQrtT5o9

Jill Biden is being the white lady who won’t let Black players from the South have their win without inviting the almost entirely white team from the Midwest who lost to them. Because Joe Biden thinks inviting Iowa to the white house will help him in 2024.
Disgusting. https://t.co/JxHShNitCk

Seriously, this is the most white-lady bullshit, and Iowa needs NOT TO DO IT.
I loathe Kim Mulkey with the white-hot heat of 1,000 suns, but I love the LSU women, and they deserve their moment. Alone. The way it's ALWAYS been done. https://t.co/blL3B3eRo1

If Joe Biden lets this happen, he proves himself unfit for office. https://t.co/ZmbTRQI5cK

It’s decided … America universally thinks this is a stupid idea. If she has any support for it online, we’re not able to find it.
