Was she swimming against 5 trans swimmers or does she just suck?

She just sucks, and instead of trying to improve herself decided to hop on the conservative hate train to attack the trans woman. The three top spots were all cis women.

It's not only attacking one of the most vulnerable demographics in the country, but it's attacking one of the most vulnerable demographics in the country over the most pettiest bullshit I can imagine. She's upset because she didn't get 5th place.

It's not even that; she got fifth place. She's upset that she had to share fifth place with a trans woman. I also feel the need to point out that it was her last competitive event, so it's not exactly like competitive swimming is a vital component of her life that she kept doing moving forward. She's just a vile, terrible person who realized she could make a career as a right-wing grifter.
