Dodgers should skip the White House with Trump, La Times suggests

Los Angeles Dodgers are the ruling World Series masters, which means they have an opportunity to visit President Donald Trump in the White House.

However, a recent story in the Los Angeles Times told their readers, “not put on it.”

The Times mentioned how Mookie Betts jumped into a visit in 2019 with Boston Red Sox and remains openly about social justice issues, and other former dodgers as well as co -owners Magic Johnson and Billie Jean King have been critical of the president in the past.

Los Angeles will be in DC early in the season with a three-game series from April 7 to 9. That’s probably the time Dodgers would visit their visit. (They will also visit the nearby Baltimore Orioles in early September.)

But The Times said “It’s hard to imagine” the team visits 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

“Overall, it’s hard to imagine that Dodgers is accepting a festive photo with the president right now. Los Angeles is not only Dodger Blue, but Democrat Blue,” the story reads. “The president lost La County by 33 percentage points. In his feuds with California Govin Gavin Newsom, Trump has threatened to withhold fire -disaster funds without concessions. He seems to never miss an opportunity to take an ironing in the Golden State.

“The world champion Dodgers should stand up to, not next to the president. If an overture from the White House comes, they can send a friendly note: Thanks, but no.”

Dodgers visited former President Joe Biden in July 2021 to celebrate their 2020 World Series title.

Philadelphia Eagles visits the White House on April 28 in the middle of their Super Bowl Lix win, despite earlier rumors that they would skip, as they did in 2018. Florida Panthers recently visited the president to celebrate their Stanley Cup victory last summer.

The last championship team from the professionals to visit Trump in office during his first presidency was 2019 Washington NationalsFive days after their World Series win over Houston Astros (despite Sean DooleTle’s criticism of the president). The pandemic made visits harder by 2020, and when the restrictions began to be lifted, Biden had joined.

Uconn -men and LSU -Kvinde’s team visited the bite last year. The former president was criticized for originally not inviting University of Georgia Football team last year, and after they received an invitation, the Bulldogs did not go. Nor did they make the trip the year before due to Covid-19 safety conditions.

Both Las Vegas Aces and Boston Celtics, the reigning WNBA and NBA champs, visited the bite before leaving the office. The previous NBA champions, Denver Nuggets, especially canceled their visit last year with reference to their quest to earn # 1 seed in the Western Conference. (They got # 2 seeds after a draw.)
