To me it would be like an athletic team with some Jewish players meeting Hitler in 1936 or Jackie Robinson and the1947 Brooklyn Dodgers having a get together with Strom Thurmond.
Send a clear message by boycotting!

(1,771 posts)3 of the Detroit Tigers did the Trump Dance at Yankee Stadium when Trump was there for the annual 9/11 commemoration.
#13 Dillon Dingler is from Ohio so that checks but the other 2 are Latino ball players Wenceel Perez and Gleyber Torres
Tigers proceeded to go on a prolonged losing streak and nearly missed the playoffs..
1-9 since the Tigers did the Trump Dance

Although not Latino the Angels recently hired MAGA Kurt Suzuki as their new manager.
You can see why Arte wanted to hire Kurt Suzuki to manage the Angels.

(22,823 posts)But I'd like to see them make dumpie believe they will be going to the White House and watch him stock
up on all the cold BigMacs and when he figures out he was lied to we'll hear " The Los Angeles Dodgers
are the worst team ever to play baseball and should be fired from their jobs."
Love to see the MAGA Dodger fans reaction, we know he'll say something mean and nasty about them.

(52,858 posts)In addition to their roster of Latin players, they have a Japanese starting pitcher named Yoshinobu Yamamoto, a Japanese relief pitcher named Roki Sasaki, a Japanese two-way player named Shohei Ohtani and a Korean position player named Hye-seong Kim.
They also have a player named Freddie Freeman who, because his parents were both born in Canada, has dual citizenship from the US and Canada. Trump would be MORE than happy to deport him for that!
And why do you want to abuse the American-born players on the Dodgers by making them eat cold fast-food hamberders with Donald Trump? You know he would.
