Trump Expected Love at Baseball Game – Got Loudly Booed
Trump lives in a bubble. Having presided over the killing of the leader of ISIS, Trump fully expected to be cheered at the World Series game like it was a #MAGA rally. World Series fans had another idea.
Donald Trump’s face dropped at Game 5 of the World Series last night when he realized that he was being booed by baseball fans at the 41,000 capacity stadium.
In the build up to Sunday’s match between the Washington Nationals and Houston Astros at the Nationals Park stadium in D.C., fans cheered and applauded as players stepped up to their bases. But the atmosphere turned when President Trump appeared on the jumbotron.
The chorus of cheers turned into thundering boos when the commander-in-chief appeared on-screen beside First Lady Melania Trump and a group of Republicans—including Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida.
Joe Scar had a big sad about the booing, but fuck that guy. Fuck Trump & baseball for that matter.
So the swamp dwelling $1000 + ticket holders in DC booed Trump…What a surprise.. And how did that work out for the Nationals? ,
lol… swamp.
My friend who is a nurse at Beebe and her retired cop husband were there and I’m sure they were booing him as well.
But with MAGAT logic, money=intelligence and merit. So if you CANT afford a ws ticket, you’re poor, stupid and undeserving.
Fuck baseball? You only got half of that part at the end right.
Uh oh Jason…. There you go again… Risking losing the moderates with your unseemly radical talk.
LOL…yes. George Will is going to be displeased.
For everyone else…Baseball is boring.
But … but … but … I get the biggest crowds ever.
Dino Senator Coons also had a sad over the boos.
*eyeroll*
So mature. Really, why can’t the world be as sober and mature as the sensible center?
Which reminds me… In the 60 min interview, Biden veered away from claiming that the Republicans would regain their moderation when he is elected. He came close then backed off.
It was as if he learned how bad it sounds. It can’t be that because he honestly thinks that the Republicans would regain their moderation when he is elected.
No, he actually believes that. He also actually believes that Hunter, in making a living off his last name, did nothing wrong.
He lives in just as insular a bubble as Trump does.
I think we should primary Chris Coons. I’m going to suggest this at the next secret socialist meeting. I’ll let you all know how it goes.
Baseball is boring mainly for the dim. I doubt if Trump likes it, either. I wonder when not liking baseball became a principled leftist position.
MY LANDS! I’VE BEEN INSULTED! And yet, to keep the moral high ground, I will not reply in kind. Rather, I will point to the fact that there are less than 20 minutes of actual play in a baseball game which means that “baseball is boring” is a provable, empirical fact.
Not liking baseball is not a principled leftist position it is the position of people with a pulse.
Time > action is true of virtually all professional sports (soccer being the main exception). As in all sports, it’s pretty boring when you don’t know what’s going on. Most of the enjoyment comes from the tension before each pitch. If you’re guessing along with the hitter about what the pitcher will throw next, it’s mentally interesting even when everyone is just standing there waiting.
Also, too, you were an NFL fan, so you can appreciate that it’s no more active than baseball — you’ll get about 150 plays, most of which last under 10 seconds. All told you get roughly 11 minutes of actual action. The number is just a little higher for baseball, but the games usually last longer so the ratio is roughly similar.
” If you’re guessing along with the hitter about what the pitcher will throw next,”
My guess is he is going to throw a baseball. That is…after a lot of standing around and chit chat.
Actually, the “chit-chat” is signaled by the catcher. The center-field camera lets you eavesdrop by showing it. Then they change the signs when a runner gets to second, and you try the harder puzzle of figuring out which sign is the true one.
The NFL copied it by having coaches signal plays to the QB, who still relays it to the team in the world’s worst sporting play, the huddle.
An analogy: If you didn’t know anything about politics — and apparently Chris Coons doesn’t — one might think Senators truly considered the twerps across the aisle their “esteemed colleagues.” There’s more going on that it seems on the surface.
I stand corrected.
Speaking of dim, why is it no one asks Trump what books are currently on his reading list? That’s a routine softball question asked of all Presidents.
Like everyone else on the GOP softball team, he’d answer The Bible.
I always wish somebody would give “christians” a Cliff Notes version, so they’d get a clue to what it’s actually about. One of the great mysteries that’s not really a mystery is why their only takeaway is that God hates gays.
Washington (CNN) Democratic Sen. Chris Coons on Monday shunned chants of “lock him up” aimed at President Donald Trump by the crowd at World Series Game 5. “I have a hard time with the idea of a crowd on a globally televised sporting event chanting ‘lock him up’ about our President. I frankly think the office of the President deserves respect, even when the actions of our President at times don’t,” Coons told CNN’s John Berman on “New Day.”
*puke*
He’ll go on with this act for years if he doesn’t get primaried every time he runs.
Here’s a question for you: Do you think fans of the Washington football team would have chanted “Lock him up!” without violence breaking out in the stands? Do you think a football crowd would boo Trump at all?
What’s striking about last night’s demonstration is that there was apparently little opposition to it in the stands.
Only because Coons wasn’t there to pop a cap in some rude bitch.
