President Donald Trump
Put Pete Rose In The Corridor Of Fame!!!
… Rips ‘Lazy Ass’ Baseball
Printed
Opening Day remains to be a number of weeks away, however President Donald Trump threw one excessive and tight Friday night time … torching baseball for not enshrining the late legend Pete Rose in Cooperstown!
POTUS, an enormous baseball fan, unloaded on MLB management and HOF voters, blasting commish Rob Manfred (though not by title) and writers for maintaining the all-time hit chief out of the Corridor, even in demise.
“Major League Baseball didn’t have the courage or decency to put the late, great, Pete Rose, also known as ‘Charlie Hustle,’ into the Baseball Hall of Fame,” Trump wrote on Fact Social.
“Now he is dead, will never experience the thrill of being selected, even though he was a FAR BETTER PLAYER than most who made it, and can only be named posthumously. WHAT A SHAME!”
DT’s not improper about Rose being higher than most in Cooperstown (and that is saying lots!). The Cincinnati Reds legend was one of many very biggest to grace a diamond.
47 continued, promising to wipe the slate clear for Rose … after he was convicted of failing to report revenue he earned from signing autographs, a felony, in 1990.
“Anyway, over the next few weeks I will be signing a complete PARDON of Pete Rose, who shouldn’t have been gambling on baseball, but only ever on HIS TEAM WINNING. He never bet against himself, or the other team.”
The president ended his diatribe by highlighting a number of of Pete’s profession achievements and with a warning for baseball.
“He had the most hits, by far, in baseball history, and won more games than anyone in sports history. Baseball, which is dying all over the place, should get off its fat, lazy ass, and elect Pete Rose, even though it’s far too late, into the Baseball Hall of Fame.”
Rose was completely banned from Main League Baseball in 1989 after an investigation concluded he wagered on baseball (which he later admitted to), leaving him ineligible for the Corridor.
Regardless of stress over time from followers and folks like Trump (who beforehand spoke out for Pete), MLB hasn’t budged on their stance.
The 17x All-Star, 3x World Collection Champ, and Nationwide League Most Priceless Participant died in September on the age of 83.
