This past June we reported that Donald Trump was suing former Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin after she made public allegations that the Miss USA pageant was rigged and that the winners had been decided beforehand. She used this as her rationale for dropping out of the competition, as opposed to her very vocal opposition to the inclusion of transgender females in the pageant.

Well, the Donald made good on his promise to sue. 

Find out what happened after the jump.

It wasn't a smart move for Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin to hide her blatant transphobia behind accusations of rigging lofted against the Miss USA organization. When the story of Monnin's anti-trans attitude first came out last week, Donald Trump was suing mad and threatened to take legal action against the Miss USA loser. This week, he and the Miss USA organization made good on their promise.

Guess smart moves aren't exactly Miss Monin's forte. 

Details follow.

(Forgive us, we were jumping between Miss USA, the MTV Movie Awards, and Oprah's Next Chapter. We're only human!!)

Watch Miss Ohio's ultra-feminist response after the jump!

Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin has gone all ladyfingers Carrie Prejean ever since Miss USA winner Olivia Culpo took the title tiara after coming out in support of transgender contestants.

While throwing a transphobic tantrum, Sheena announced she's had enough of the Miss USA organization (but later sidestepped that excuse to say she's resigning due to the event "being rigged").
