If he is upset about this name change, wait till they rename the army posts named after confederate generals?!!
Former President Trump criticized the Cleveland Indians' decision to change the baseball franchise's name to the Guardians, saying "many Indians" will likely be upset by the decision.
"Can anybody believe that the Cleveland Indians, a storied and cherished baseball franchise since taking the name in 1915, are changing their name to the Guardians? Such a disgrace," Trump said Friday.
"And I guarantee that the people who are most angry about it are the many Indians of our Country," Trump added.

I guess the Notre Dame fighting Irish LEPERCHAUN isn't being canceled.
Because Irish people hardly care.
Of course Irish were born with privileged skin color.
What a JOKE the Left is of today.
Donnie makes a good point!
Points scorecard:
Bad points - 10,000
Good points - 1
Of course he does, it is an easy "issue" to demogogue, fits nicely into the cancel culture rhetoric, doesn't say anything of his followers in Red States disproportionately catching and dying from Covid, but having a say on a sports team changing their name is right up his alley

To summarize: Who gives a shit?
He’s not wrong…"And I guarantee that the people who are most angry about it are the many Indians of our Country," Trump added.

The Traffic Guardians are an Icon in Cleveland. Not a bad choice if you are going to change the name.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

I criticize his name change from Drumpf to Trump.
BLUEXITA Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red
Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.
It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.
This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

This thread brings to mind the following question:
Did Trump make a mistake with how he used social media, and if so at what point did it become a mistake?
I saw someone the other day argue well that it became a mistake Jan 20 2017.
I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.
DARK AGES SUCK!
Simple. but accurate. acid test I like for anyone who criticize the abondoning of Native American sports nicknames, would you go up to a person on the street you recognized as a Native American and openly address them as "redskin?" For example, "hey redskin, which was is the ballpark?"
