'Impossibly immature': Internet slams Dem attorney general over 'coded' Olympian post

A social media post about a former Olympian is causing Americans to question the Democratic attorney general of Michigan for a purportedly "coded" tweet about President Joe Biden.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, who has charged associates of Donald Trump in criminal cases in her state, shared a recent post by American professional soccer player Alex Morgan. Morgan stated in late June that she was "disappointed about not having the opportunity to represent our country on the Olympic stage."

"This will always be a tournament that is close to my heart and I take immense pride any time I put on the crest," she added.

She concluded, "In less than a month, I look forward to supporting this team and cheering them on alongside the rest of our country. LFG."

Nessel shared that statement more than two weeks after it was made, writing, "I adore Alex Morgan. One of the greatest of all time."

"But she’s aged significantly from her prime playing days & gracefully accepted that in order to win the gold it was time to pass the baton," Nessel then said.

In a separate post, she said, "No one will ever forget her incredible accomplishments, but Alex just wants what’s best for the team and for America. That’s what makes her a true champion."

Former Republican strategist Liam Donovan saw the post and shared it, writing as the caption, "What is it with Michigan pols and coded tweets?"
