Donald Trump is calling for the Washington Commanders NFL team to change its name back to the Washington Redskins right away, warning that he might try to stop a new stadium deal if they refuse. He also said the Cleveland Guardians baseball team should go back to its old name, the Indians.
In several posts on Truth Social on Sunday, Trump claimed there is “a big clammering” for the Washington team to use its “original name” again. He also said, “Our great Indian people, in massive numbers, want this to happen,” talking about the Cleveland team, and finished by telling both teams’ owners to “get it done.”
