Maximum Security got robbed! Twitter sees Trump link behind shocking Kentucky Derby disqualification
A scandal rocked the Kentucky Derby when Maximum Security, the horse that came first, was disqualified and a longshot contender was declared winner. And twitterati couldn’t help but make the issue all about Donald Trump.
For the first time in 145 years “the horse who finished first in the Kentucky Derby was disqualified,” the sporting event said on its official account. Maximum Security, which has had four wins in four races of 2019, was accused of infringing on the path of several other horses and the title went to Country House, which had started the race at 65-1 odds. And its coloring happened to be more “orange” than that of others, enough to drive the twittersphere mad.
Just like with the 2016 presidential election the "orange haired horse" that came in second was declared the winner #KentuckyDerby2019

Still waiting for results of #KentuckyDerby2019. Apparently one horse won the popular vote and another horse won the Electoral College. 🐎

The Democrats are going to open an investigation into the 2019 Kentucky Debry as they believe President Trump committed collusion with Maximum Security!

So many of the horses in the Kentucky Derby are things that bother Donald Trump. I'm rooting for Cutting Humor, Code of Honor, and Maximum Security.

Well, it finally happened in sports too, the person who crossed the finish line first (aka the popular vote winner) somehow was declared the loser (aka electoral college) ... next ... let’s find a way to ruin the #SuperBowl#KentuckyDerby#KentuckyDerby2019#MaximumSecurity

Country House is the Donald Trump of the Kentucky Derby. Maximum Security was robbed.
