President Donald Trump criticized the Washington NFL franchise and Cleveland MLB franchise for considering a possible name change in the wake of the ongoing movement against systemic racism.
Trump tweeted the teams "look like they are going to be changing their names in order to be politically correct":
Donald J. TrumpThey name teams out of STRENGTH, not weakness, but now the Washington Redskins & Cleveland Indians, two fabled sports franchises, look like they are going to be changing their names in order to be politically correct. Indians, like Elizabeth Warren, must be very angry right now!
