Trump Chickens Out

Trump Backs Out of Throwing Pitch at Yankees Game

After saying he would do the ceremonial honor at a game on Aug. 15, causing a stir on social media, the president tweeted he would skip it to focus on combating the pandemic.

^^^ Sure! Also, his arm is still strained from his 2006 effort below.

His excuse for it, right after posting a picture of him finishing a round of golf, was quite pathetically transparent.

Have the yankees ever confirmed he was even invited? Or is this just more Trump bullshit from the start?

Really starting to like her VP chances. But I still think Warren is the better choice (sorry women of color.)

Leave that Senate seat alone!

Yeah yeah, everyone keeps forgetting Charlie Baker is a Republican because the rest of the party isn’t like him.

He got booed at the World Series a couple years back. He's afraid of that. Also afraid he won't be able to throw the ball to the catcher and will look frail.

He wouldn't get booed because there will be no fans.

True. It must be the fear of appearing feeble, then.

 

[repoman0]

He knows it’d be a repeat of the umbrella scene. Start throwing the ball in slow motion, give up halfway due to exhaustion and low T, ball lands on the ground halfway to the plate

Maybe they can do a "phone-a-boo". Call in and play all the boo's over the loudspeakers.

This ^^^

Obama should do it.
It would break whatever is left of that fucked up brain of his.

Jesus. That! Wow, I'd forgotten. That clip always reminds me of a dog who can't get its new favorite stick through the narrow posts of a gate; all it has to do is turn its head a bit and the stick will go through. But it doesn't understand that so after trying again and again it has to abandon its stick...like with an umbrella, ineffectually rolling around in the breeze at the top of an airstair.

There are no handrails to help him up onto the pitchers mound, or off.

 

[esquared]

Like this?

He would totally loose it when every member of both teams takes a knee.

Omg yes

Brilliant!

The coward can't run the risk of getting his feels hurt again, odds are that loser gets booed worse than the last time it happened (at a non-screened event). He only wants rallies, too fragile for the real thing.

While he played baseball as a teen and was reportedly good, those days are over. His nervous and circulatory systems are clogged with decades of spray tan residue and fast food grease, look how he navigated a harrowing ramp with a 2 degree declination the other week. It's always a low oxygen environment for Il Douche.

His handlers know the boo fest would only be exponentially more embarrassing if followed by a pitch that makes Dr. Fauci look like a fired up Randy Johnson by comparison.

 

[FaaR]

Obama should do it.

lol!

He would ban baseball before it could happen with one of those big-boy leather-bound executive orders of his.

I'd pay money to do that.

 

[MtnMan]

There would be 52 players, plus managers, umps, stadium staff, camera men, and many others present to boo him. He can't chance it, and the best part is that he knows it.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

And just like I thought. More bullshit from the orange menace.

they should have publicly announced that no, we did not invite him nor will we.

 

[ElFenix]

don't you have to be invited to chicken out?
