CNN’s Abby Phillip claims GOP lawmakers back Caitlin Clark ‘exclusively’ because she is White

CNN hosts Cari Champion and Abby Phillip argue that GOP lawmakers' support for Caitlin Clark is racially motivated due to her being White. Lawmakers wrote a letter to WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert demanding accountability for Clark's treatment, which includes hard fouls. The hosts claim the lawmakers' criticism ignores the league's history and the experiences of Black and LGBTQIA+ players.
