Trump's White House hops on Sophie Cunningham bandwagon as finger-pointing meme goes viral

The White House social media account has jumped on a viral meme involving Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham.......

Officials subsequently issued Clark a technical foul for "instigating/taunting behavior during an escalating confrontation." As referees struggled to get a hold of the situation, Cunningham further escalated the heated exchange by pointing toward Bonner, who descended into a fit of rage.............

Since becoming one of the WNBA's biggest stars, Cunningham's political views have been placed under the microscope. The 29-year-old was even nicknamed "MAGA Barbie" by conservative outlets and sectors of the league's fanbase, forcing her to address her political stance in an interview with the New York Times.

"I'm clearly white and from Missouri, and so I think there was a lot of assumption there," Cunningham said last September. "All I have to say is I really am right in the middle, and I think a lot of America is like that.
