Jozy Altidore fires back at Trump in tweet

Jozy Altidore is the latest public figure to speak out against President Donald Trump’s alleged remarks earlier this week. Lashing out against the President’s reported comments about “shithole” countries, the Toronto FC striker tweeted a picture of himself, Nashville Predators defenceman P.K. Subban, and runner Usain Bolt.

For those unaware, earlier this week President Trump allegedly described El Salvador, Haiti, and several nations in Africa as “shithole” countries, drawing the ire of politicians, celebrities and athletes around the world.

Altidore isn’t the first TFC player to speak out against the President. Last year, Michael Bradley told media he was “embarrassed” by Trump’s proposed travel ban.
