.FLOTUS's press team was forced to walk back an apparent White House invitation for the NCAA women's basketball runner-up uiowa following a wave of online ridicule. It has long been a tradition to invite champions to the White House, not runners-up.

"Last night, I attended the NCAA women's basketball championship," Biden said Monday."So, I know we'll have the champions come to the White House, we always do. So, we hope LSU will come, but, you know, I'm going to tell Joe I think Iowa should come, too, because they played such a good game.""Winners and losers, that's sportsmanship," according to the first lady."That's good sportsmanship.

Hey @Reese10Angel, I mean absolutely zero disrespect to the First Lady, but you are 1000% correct. That is a bad suggestion. Runner-ups don’t get invited to the White House. Why are we trying to change it now? I completely agree with you, Angel. https://t.co/xqs2cs9Zr9"That is a bad suggestion. Runner-ups don't get invited to the White House.

Jill Biden scraps White House invite for Iowa women’s basketball teamTechnical foul on the first lady! A spokeswoman for Jill Biden walked back her public invitation Tuesday for the University of Iowa women’s basketball team to visit the White House following … Such amateurs in the W.H. There are many things that should be scrapped going on in Washington. 1) The losing team shouldn’t get an invite. They’re adults. They know they lost and they don’t need to be patronized just bc you want your decrepit husband to get a boost in the Iowa caucus 2) if you invite them anyway, rescinding the invite is classless and cowardly

Jill Biden wants champions LSU — and Iowa — at White HouseFirst lady Jill Biden said Monday that she wants to see the defeated Iowa women’s basketball team invited to the White House as well as the national title winner Louisiana State University. She watched LSU’s 102-85 victory from the stands on Sunday night. The first lady, during a visit to the Colorado state capital in Denver on Monday, praised Iowa’s sportsmanship and congratulated both teams on their performance. She said the champions were sure to be invited to the White House and then added that she was going to tell the president that “Iowa should come, too, because they played such a good game.” White losers being appeased, please NO! Let the winner have their time and glory. So Jill can talk to the Iowa team about white privilege and make them take a knee to the LSU players. Not a Biden fan AT ALL, but I LOVE this recommendation!!! Wait till she sees how her hypocritical woke crowd responds to it! 😄😆🤣😂
