Trump Calls Medina Spirit, Kentucky Derby Winner That Failed Drug Test, a 'Junky'

Medina Spirit won the Kentucky Derby just eight days ago, and that might be as long as it lasts while post-race drug tests indicate the race horse tested positive for elevated levels of betamethasone.
If another test sample comes back positive, the horse and its team will be stripped of the title, which would default to Mandaloun, who finished second in the May 1 race at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky.
News about Medina Spirit on Sunday prompted former President Donald Trump to issue a statement, in which he called the race horse a "junky," and said that cheating to win mirrors today's America.
"So now even our Kentucky Derby winner, Medina Spirit, is a junky," Trump said. "This is emblematic of what is happening to our Country. The whole world is laughing at us as we go to hell on our Borders, our fake Presidential Election, and everywhere else."
