If I took a shit that was kind of orange, I’d be tempted to name it “Donald” too for fun. Then I flush it. I’m not raising it as my kid.

Like this guy (he’s the first interviewed about 15 seconds in, although he says Obama was always on vacation and not in the office but doesn’t say golfing specically):

[Jordan Klepper vs. Trump Supporters | The Daily Show](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzDhm808oU4&t=320s)

The rest of the supporters aren’t any sharper. The first guy says he’d like to get to the bottom of why Obama wasn’t in the Oval Office on 9/11. Why are we moving on to the Epstein files when we haven’t even solved that one, yet?

“Let’s deflect from Epstein some more…”

> Trump said Sunday on his Truth Social site that “The Washington ‘Whatever’s’ should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team. There is a big clamoring for this. Likewise, the Cleveland Indians, one of the six original baseball teams, with a storied past. Our great Indian people, in massive numbers, want this to happen. Their heritage and prestige is systematically being taken away from them. Times are different now than they were three or four years ago. We are a Country of passion and common sense. OWNERS, GET IT DONE!!!”

Josh Harris, who bought the Commanders in 2023, said earlier this year that the name was here to stay. Likewise, Guardians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti said there are no plans to reexamine a name change.

For the non-sports fans, the Washington Commanders were previously known as the Redskins, and Cleveland’s baseball team used to be known as the Indians.

I mean, “Indians” sure ain’t great. Ignorant but not blatantly offensive. But “Redskins?” I was just looking at the baseball teams in Japan and I didn’t see any teams called “The Slant Eyes”.  
Clamoring for it my arse. I suggest if the deplorables don’t like the new names, they can boycott football. Might do them some good to get off the couch and put the beer down. (No offense to normal people who watch sports and/or drink beer. I’ve certainly done my share of both.)

The administration changed the names of some military bases back to what they used to be. They technically aren’t named after Confederates anymore; they skirted the law by naming them for a different Robert E. Lee, etc.

I wonder if the Cleveland baseball team could pull the same trick. Change the name back, then update all the branding to feature people from India.

(Which would still be pretty weird, but would serve Trump right.)

I don’t see how that would fix anything. You’re still turning an ethnicity into a mascot. It’s no less offensive.

Yeah, still problematic, but would be the kind of loophole Trump likes to exploit, so would be interesting to see it used against him.

I seem to recall that the worst aspect of the Indians was the Chief Wahoo logo.

I shudder to think of them doing such a logo representing a guy from India.

Naw. Make it an Indian cricket player, holding a cricket bat. As I understand things, Indians are pretty proud of their success at cricket.

They could call the team the Cleveland Crickets. Which isn’t a bad name. And then they have an Indian cricket player logo, and Trump says he brought back the Indian mascot.

So just exactly how would Dumb Donnie feck up the stadium deal? Or I should say, in normal times, with a normal president, what power would one use to intervene in a private deal? Does the fed fund it in anyway? Or, is it more likely that he’s threatening to buy off whoever the person is that has influence on these things?  
Feck, every time he makes one of his ridiculous demands I think ’ this isn’t under the Fed’s purview’ and next thing you know, McDonald’s golden arches are literally gold and we’re all saying the pledge of Allegiance at work every day.
