Expressing his pride to see the three women together, Travis wrote:
“Love this. @sophaller @Riley_Gaines_ & @JenniferSey posing after the game. Three women willing to stand up for actual women when so many are cowards and liars with broken brains.”
Gaines was also one of the star campaigners for the Republican Party during the 2024 presidential election and contributed to the party’s MAGA campaign.
Moreover, Sophie Cunningham has drawn support from conservative commentators and Republican figures following her stance on transgender athletes competing in women’s sports. The Fever, on the other hand, lost 108-100 to the Lynx on Sunday, ending their winning streak.

When asked about her thoughts on the rallies supporting Sophie Cunningham’s stance outside the arenas, Clark said:
“I think it’s for leagues and governing bodies to work with their athletes to find solutions. Our focus is on basketball. That’s what we talk about and how we can get wins and obviously we didn’t do that tonight. So we need to find an area to improve in that way.”
Caitlin Clark scored 19 points and dished out 10 assists in the game, while Kelsey Mitchell led the scoring with 37 points. Cunningham could not score more, adding just three points in 23 minutes.
