Trump posts that Redskins and Indians names should be returned
Two big posts.
In other words, please forget about the Epstein stuff, everybody. Nothing to see here.
The Atlantic reports today that he has personally rejected all suggestions to share any info.
Love all this.

Might I suggest the Washington Predators
...in honor of President Trump
Believe I had suggested “Washington Swamp Creatures”…once upon a time.

We're among friends and can admit that the 'Commanders" and "Guardians" are super gay.

They sound like names of pest control or security companies.
One of the best was the St.John’s Redmen. Had nothing to do with Native Americans. (Think Orangemen of Syracuse, Crimson of Harvard or Cardinal of Stanford.)
They did need to change the mascot (which they did...to a poor one)…but wasn’t enough apparently.
Cleveland Chiefs and Washington Braves. Problem solved, apparently.

Why not Washington Whiteskins and Cleveland Caucasians?

Blast from the past...
They’re stupid names. But that’s not the point.
Also, we might agree that “Washington Football Team” should have stayed.
Trump just needs to release the Epstein list - he said he would. And agree on pt 2.

This is what you focus on as Obama is criminally referred to DOJ for attempted coup.
Of course it is.
That is also a pathetic, desperate attempt at a distraction

Nonsense. You said they are professionals (and the facts are irrefutable).

I'm curious. Are you ok with the Fightin' Irish name?
(no message)
As long as the "Irish" don't mind...I'm good with it. When "Redskins" and "Indians" object. they
should be listened to and respected...in spite of Trump's complete lack of empathy...Agree?
Of course, the "objectors" are funded by Soros and white lefties.
If the left object, the opposite view must be correct. Words to live by.
Native Americans consider such names offensive...the Washington team owner is fine with Commanders..
...what's Trump doing upsetting the apple cart?
...here's some background on the issue...
---------------------
AI Overview
Dear white people, stop telling Native Americans like me ...
Yes, many Native Americans and advocacy groups objected to the use of the name "Redskins" for the Washington NFL team, viewing it as a derogatory and offensive term. Organizations like the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) have long campaigned against the use of Native American names and imagery in sports, arguing they perpetuate negative stereotypes. Some studies have shown that a significant percentage of Native Americans surveyed found the name offensive.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Offensive Term:
The term "Redskins" is considered a racial slur by many Native Americans and others, rooted in a history of violence and dehumanization.
Native American Advocacy:
Organizations like the NCAI and individual Native American leaders and advocates have actively protested the name for decades, calling for its removal.
Studies on Offense:
While some polls in the past suggested that a majority of Native Americans were not offended by the name, later studies and analyses, including those from UC Berkeley, found that a substantial portion, particularly those engaged in tribal cultural practices, were deeply offended.
Team's Resistance:
The team, under the ownership of Dan Snyder, resisted changing the name for a long time, despite increasing pressure from Native American groups and others.
Name Change to Commanders:
Ultimately, after years of pressure and amid protests for racial justice, the team changed its name to the Washington Commanders in 2022.

What if 1 Irish person objects?

What's funny about this is that it's the opposite of Gulf of America or Denali.
There are at least 100K things named after Native Americans, should we rename all of them?
two white teachers are the ones who pushed for the Miami Redskins to change their name. The tribe
had had No issue with it
Of course they should.
My High School is still the Redskins.
We should poll the people you think should be offended.
It's definitely not unanimous.

OK Kamala.
You sink deeper every day. Please learn how the government works, it may help you with your issues.
You’re a Trump cocksucker. What you think doesn’t matter. You’re a loser….
And you happen to be the worst poster in the history of this board.
As usual the name calling.
You have nothing, please educate yourself.
Case in point. No substance, nothing new…just 1-5 word responses…
Probably because of the lack of depth of your IQ. Loser
My point stands.
You would not last five minutes in my VFW.
You served? Branch, MOS. Or are you one of those “I almost served” veterans?
(no message)
Your VFW is probably full of imbeciles like you and I’d mop the floor with the…
lot of you. You’re a pussy
WTF man?
(no message)
Can you imagine?
He’s a big veteran don’t you know.
Just a little banter between vets or was I being too rough on you?
(no message)
As usual, you are whacked.
Vets don’t fight each other in the VFW, explains a lot how you have never been there. But the hilarity of you living in California would be fun, the laughing would be non stop. The Vietnam guys who spent weeks at a time out in the bush and served multiple tours would love to hear your war stories. The Afghanistan vets would love to hear your love of old Joe. Californication is a hell of a drug.
Branch, MOS? Easy question for you or do you just hang out at the VFW …
for hero worship? I’m sure they appreciate your support if that’s the case.
As expected, you nothing about the VFW.
Keep up the good work. Now is the time for more name calling.
I know plenty and I figured you didn’t have the backbone to serve..:
Just a know nothing shit talker. Carry on.
You as usual know nothing.
Probably have never been in a VFW. But faking veteran status is the MO of the Dems. Not surprising. More name calling.
You think I fake my veteran status? Ask Jakers if I’m a fake…
All of my military accomplishments have been verified. Again, what branch and what MOS? I didn’t think so.
My VFW is pretty solid. A lot of paratroopers from the Vietnam era. Some from the 101st, 82nd, and 173rd. Some are Trumpers, but they understand why others can’t stand the guy. They also make fun of hero worshippers. I don’t hang out there much. I prefer the legion. More guys from the 82nd.
Crickets chirping. If you’re going to make bold assumptions, at least…
back that shit up. You essentially accused me of stolen valor. Pussy move.
Bwahahaha, you beat me to it.

I think he meant one of the original six to sign a black baseball player so they get a big pass
