Veteran wrestling personality Jim Cornette has publicly blasted former WWE executive and current United States Secretary of Education Linda McMahon following comments she made regarding the Biden administration and parental rights.
McMahon appeared in a video alongside President Donald Trump in which she accused the previous administration of allowing schools to keep parents uninformed about students transitioning.
“After the Biden administration allowed schools to secretly transition students without parents’ knowledge, President Trump is defending parental rights like never before.”
The comments quickly caught Cornette’s attention, with the outspoken wrestling veteran quote-posting the clip and delivering a fierce response aimed at both McMahon and Trump.
“I can believe the plastic-faced stooge lying with the crime boss standing over her–what I’m gobsmacked about is that anyone with a functioning brain actually BELIEVES this gibberish:”
Cornette has never been shy about expressing his political opinions publicly, and this is far from the first time he has directed criticism toward Trump or those supporting him.
During a previous exchange with a wrestling fan who revealed they had voted for Trump, Cornette responded:
“I’ll never forgive you or anyone else for being such suckers.”
Cornette continues to regularly discuss topics outside professional wrestling through his social media accounts and podcasts, with politics frequently becoming part of his commentary.
