Trump Suggests He’ll Block Washington Commanders Stadium Deal If Name Change Isn’t Reversed ‘Immediately’

Trump also mentioned the Cleveland Guardians, who changed their name and mascot from the Cleveland Indians, insisting, without further elaborating, that “our great Indian people, in massive numbers, want this to happen.”

Trump followed up with a separate post Sunday afternoon, saying “if they don’t change the name back to the original ‘Washington Redskins,’ and get rid of the ridiculous moniker, ‘Washington Commanders,’ I won’t make a deal for them to build a Stadium in Washington,” claiming his original statement had “totally blown up.”
