Don't do it, Donald

 Don't do it, I say. Take a step back and think about it, Don. You do NOT want to go there. Back off before it's too late.

For those wondering, this is the specific thing of Trump's doings that I'm talking about:

You can read the full article here: Trump's boner

I know I know.  Of all the things Trump has done since being re-elected (dropping bombs on Iran, blocking the Epstein files after campaigning on a promise to release them, adding several trillion more to America's national debt) I pick THIS to kvetch about.  Well, sit tight, dear reader, and you'll easily see why I chose this issue to address.

For the record, I'm not bothered by the thought the Washington football team being called the "Redskins" again.  That's not my issue.  I'd be fine with the name being changed to the "Washington Kaffirs" thereby upsetting every South African.

Yes....... EVERY South African

They're just words, people. Pull that bug out of your ass already. 

What DOES bother me about this move by Trump is that it could set a horrible 1st Amendment damaging precedent.  He's using his presidential power to interfere with the business of a privately owned football team franchise.  The supreme court ruled that nobody can force someone to write words on a gay couple's wedding cake that he does not want to write.  So too, that same supreme court ruling applies to a current president telling a football team what words or images they can or can not put onto their jerseys.  This is basic Free Expression 101.  Trump is really really overstepping his bounds here.

What if Kamala Harris had won that election back in 2024 and one of the first things she focused on was renaming "problematic" street names and various other properties? 

What if she did some strong arm tactics to force that cake professional and other such professionals to put words on cakes and other things?  Well, Trump and his MAGA minions would be crying "blatant censorship" and "deeply unfair" and in this case they would be correct.  And, hey, she was Vice President under Joe Biden for the past 4 years. Did she and Joe do ANY such overstepping? Did they even ever just ONCE abuse the office of the presidency to compel the speech of citizens to be either expressed of suppressed against their will?  Did they ever ever EVER......... oh shit wait, yes they did. Watch the video clip below. 

Wow! The team of "Joe-Mala" did the very thing the 1st Amendment was designed to prevent. They should've been impeached for that alone.

So, ok.  Neither Republicans nor Democrats are perfect parties.  They both have people that will usurp or bend your constitutional rights to suit their wills and/or their egos.  But, just because Joe and Kamala are terrible does NOT let Trump off this hook.  If he campaigned on being better than them then he needs to demonstrate that.  THIS right here with the Washington football team does NOT do that.

From this point on, I'm going to type as if Trump himself is reading this.  Fat chance of that, but I feel compelled to do so.  Geronimo! Here I go:

Hey, Donnie Don Don!  Did you know there were some rumblings about this team changing their name back to the Redskins anyway? Did you know that? This name restoration could've happened without your involvement, and it would've been all legal and constitutional.  Although, with this name change, there's a chance they could've gone snarky and referred to "red skin potatoes" instead...

                                

It's a possibility!

                                                                    

...but that's not likely.

Or, hey, Orangey Orange Donnie Donnie Don Don, maybe just maybe the team owners were considering renaming their team to.............. The Trumps! 

Maybe they're so loyal to you that they'd name their team after "one larger than life powerhouse of a guy who takes no guff and gets things done".  That's the kind of symbol pretty much every sports franchise wants to pattern themselves after.  "The Washington Trumps!"  It has a certain ring to it.  But, after this bizarre and unconstitutional strongarm overreach tactical move of yours, this is not possible anymore.  They might keep it as the Commanders just out of spite.

But, it might not be too late.  If you back off and leave them alone right now, you might have a chance to save your presidency, your legacy, and most importantly (as your entire campaign and movement have screeched about these past 10 years) save America.  Help restore the 1st Amendment to its absolute glory please and thank you.

Okay, my little rant is over and I new feel good. I hope everyone else out there feel the same.  Ciao for now.
