Martina Navratilova responded to MAGA Republican, who hailed Donald Trump for his promise to 'restore' Title IX. Title IX is a federal civil rights law that prohibits sex discrimination in various fields.

Navratilova, who doesn't shy away from expressing her views on sensitive issues, has often highlighted her disdain towards the inclusion of transgender athletes in women's sports. However, under his regime, Joe Biden broadened the scope of the law to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity as well.

Recently, Nan Hayworth, a MAGA Republican, took to X (formerly Twitter) and called out the people who opposed Donald Trump during the presidential elections, and added how the new president was going to 'restore' Title IX. Trump had announced that he would undo the law's protection of the LGBTQ+.

"President Trump will restore Title IX protections for girls and women in his Administration. Happy Thanksgiving to all--including the folks who didn't support @realDonaldTrump but who will rejoice at his wise and just policies as they are implemented!!"

Hayworth also attached an old tweet of Navratilova to her post where she could be seen applauding college students, who decided to forfeit their match against a team that had an alleged transgender athlete.

"It stinks that these athletes, in order to stand up for themselves, have to give up playing. Brava girls- proud of you," Navratilova wrote.

Martina Navratilova was not impressed by Hayworth calling her out and sarcastically quipped, referring to Donald Trump's multiple sexual misconduct allegations.

"Sure, the rapist will protect women, yup."

Martina Navratilova reacted to an old video of Donald Trump where he could be seen controversially describing his one-year daughter Tifanny's body. He said that his daughter had his, now ex-wife, Marla Maples' legs. He accompanied the end of his answer by pointing towards his chest to indicate 'breasts'.

"I think that she's got a lot of Marla, she's really a beautiful baby. She's got Marla's legs. We don't know whether or not she's got this part yet but time will tell."

Upon watching the video, Martina Navratilova said:

"What a sick man … he has been damaged for a long time now…"

Navratilova recently called Donald Trump an 'embarrassment to the whole world' after the future American President's controversial 'Make America Great Again' Thanksgiving tweet.
