While the liberal media continues its obsession with attacking President Trump at every opportunity, American tennis star Amanda Anisimova just delivered a masterclass in how to handle their pathetic fishing expeditions.

The 24-year-old New Jersey native, ranked No. 4 in the Women's Tennis Association, shut down reporters in Melbourne who tried to bait her into political commentary after her straight-set victory in the second round of the Australian Open.

When activists masquerading as journalists attempted to steer the conversation away from her athletic performance toward politics, Anisimova delivered a perfect response that should be required viewing for every athlete:

"I don't think that's relevant."

What a concept! An athlete who actually understands that sports and politics don't mix, and who refuses to let the Trump Derangement Syndrome-infected media turn her press conference into their personal soapbox.

A Refreshing Stand Against Media Manipulation

Born to Russian immigrants, Anisimova represents the American Dream that drives the left absolutely insane. Here's a young woman who's earned her success through talent and hard work, not virtue signaling or political grandstanding.

While other athletes have been browbeaten into spouting whatever woke talking points the media demands, Anisimova simply focused on what actually matters - her performance on the court. She reminded these so-called journalists that she's there to play tennis, not to provide ammunition for their anti-Trump narratives.

This is exactly the kind of backbone we need to see more of from American athletes. The days of letting activist reporters hijack sports interviews for their political agenda should be over.

Patriots across the country are celebrating Anisimova's refusal to play the media's games. While they desperately fish for negative soundbites about our 47th President, she stayed focused on what she does best - representing America with excellence on the international stage.

Isn't it refreshing to see an athlete who actually gets it? When will more American sports stars follow her lead and tell the liberal media where they can stick their political fishing expeditions?

This is why I've always respected tennis - it's one of the few sports where athletes still have class and don't bow to woke pressure. Which player was this? I want to make sure to follow their career more closely.

Same here! We need to support athletes who aren't afraid to think for themselves instead of parroting CNN talking points.

The media's desperation is showing more and more every day. They're so terrified of Trump's momentum that they'll ambush anyone remotely connected to him. Good on this tennis star for seeing right through their games!

Finally! It's refreshing to see an athlete with the backbone to stand up to these media vultures. They can't stand that Trump has support from successful Americans.

Exactly! The media thinks they can intimidate anyone into bashing Trump. Good for this player for not taking the bait.
