"There should be a large gulf between what this dumpy shithead decides he wants on any given day and what's likely to actually happen, but the first year of the second Trump administration has been defined by the big fella obtaining all of his smallest, most petty desires. He has already put every prestigious university under his thumb, turned the tech and media industries into playthings for the regime, and demolished the whole damn East Wing of the White House."
"According to ESPN, Trump wants the Commanders to name their new stadium, which will be built on the site of the old RFK Stadium, after him. ESPN's report describes "back-channel communications" between the White House and members of the Commanders ownership group during which Trump's wishes were communicated to the team. When reached for comment by ESPN, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her usual thing, which is play permissive stepmother to the world's most awful little rich boy:"
Donald Trump seeks to have the Washington Commanders' new stadium named after him. ESPN reported back-channel communications between the White House and members of the Commanders ownership conveying Trump's wishes. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt described that as "a beautiful name," crediting Trump with making the rebuilding possible. Commanders executives anticipate possible stadium conversations while Trump attends a game. Critics characterize the push as a petty power play amid Trump's consolidation of influence over prestigious universities, tech and media industries, and changes to the East Wing of the White House. The new stadium will be built on the site of the old RFK Stadium.
