‘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!!!’

President Donald Trump on Sunday pushed forcefully for the Washington Commanders NFL team to switch back to the original franchise name of “Redskins,” and floated the notion of tying the name change to the new stadium deal.
“The Washington ‘Whatever’s’ should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team. There is a big clamoring for this,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“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!!!”
