It isn't the White House or the politics. Its Trump himself. They hate him. If it was a couple of players I would blame the players but its the majority of the players. Same thing happened with the NBA. A lot if the players said they wouldnt attend so Trump said that they werent invited. It is pretty obvious that a lot if people have issues with Trump. And this is factual. BTW I dont really hate Trump. I don't like him either. I do think he is an idiot. Like I said the problem isn't the politics the problem is the man himself. And why am I not surprised you are in love with him.

No, you really, really don't get it. As I said about the Eagles, they were trying to play Trump, leave him there holding his dork for the champions photo op. The nba team said they would not go before Trump had the opportunity to ask. People are berated into hating trump by the liberal socialist DNC run press based on nothing. This tactic works well on weak minded people. It's seems the collective memory of the average liberal is about 30 seconds. They conveniently forget how much they all liked to hang out with Trump before he changed his party affiliation to an R, which wasn't that long ago. Even that didn't deter very many liberals. What realy made TDS mainstream is what a lousy candidate hillary was. This whole thing is nothing but an extension of the liberal coup attempt.
I'd love to see you quote me on where I said or implied I love trump. Much like on the old board where I asked you to quote me on where I'd "pounded Carlson into the sand" and you couldn't. I loved Reagan, but much like trump the liberal press hated him too and did their best to make him look like an idiot too. Which again, worked on weak minded people.
But what I especially love is a foreigner trying to tell us what is and isn't based on the bullshit the press puts out on a daily basis.
Since your such an expert on the US, I'm sure you knew our GDP, that's Gross Domestic Product, which is what makes the economy grow, never went above %2.5 for the entire obama administration. It was because of his policy's, and the socialist DNC run press had his back on it. Kept telling us anything above %3 was never going to be possible again and we just had to learn to live like a third world country. Trumps policy's had this county at %3.5 in his second quarter in office. The most recent number, which was adjusted after being released, is %4.7.{the numbers are always adjusted after initial release. For obama they always got adjusted down, meaning things were worse than advertised. So far for Trump the numbers are getting adjusted up} That's nearly double of what obama was capable of. Because obama is an anti American socialist, and socialism always fails. Every. Single. Time. Prior to obama the US never had a president where the GDP never went above %3 for his entire administration. It didn't even happen under FDR, where the only reason The Great Depression lasted so long was because the federal government kept trying to "fix" the economy. The depression didn't end until we got our 16 million service members back home with their 4-5 years of paychecks in '45-'47.

Now really who really cares if a player doesn't want to visit the White House. Why do you care so much? Like I said it has absolutely nothing to do with the politics. It has everything to do with Trump himself.
Sounds as if you guys think DSP should respect Trump. Why should he? Has Trump earned it.
Did you make a big deal when Tim Thomas refused to go in 2012? His reason was all political and he is an American.
My point is a lot of people don't like Trump. So what. Who fricken cares. They have the right to do so. Are you really that much in love with Trump that you need to come to his defense?

I don’t give a shit whether DSP respects Trump. And yes, I think Tim Thomas was wrong. My biggest gripe is when individual players make it about them. All we heard after the Cup win was what a “team” effort this was. How much they appreciated each other “as a team”. The “team” may be invited to the White House .... to celebrate what the “team” accomplished. DSP is making it about him, which I object to.
Maacoshark:
Wtf is wrong with you guys? Like I said a lot of the professional athletes don't like Trump. So what. Who fucking cares? That is their right. I'm not saying its right or wrong. Its their decision and I respect that. To be honest I would prefer if all players would go whatever their feelings towards Trump are.

I think DSP is following players from the NFL and NBA. I don't think he is making it about himself. I don't understand the big deal.
I'm not saying I agree with his decision but I do respect it. I'd rather see him go.

DSP doesn't like Trump, so what. A lot of people don't like him. To be honest I don't like him either. Its nots the politics, its the demeanor. Are the Caps even going to be invited to the White House. Trump already cancelled the Superbowl champion Eagle visit and I have heard that the NBA champs the Warriors won't be invited either. Big deal, sports and politics don't belong together anyway.

Yes, it was said before game 5. If he doesn't go, I don't care so much. I wish he would go, if something he doesn't like say it personally.
