Trump says he won't throw out first pitch at Yankees game

Trump tweeted Sunday that he won’t be able to make the trip because of his “strong focus” on the coronavirus, vaccines and the economy

President Donald Trump won’t be throwing out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium next month after all.

Trump tweeted Sunday that he won’t be able to make the trip because of his “strong focus” on the coronavirus, vaccines and the economy. Trump said in the tweet: “We will make it later in the season!”

He had announced at a briefing Thursday on Major League Baseball’s opening day that he’d be at Yankee Stadium on Aug. 15 to throw out the first pitch.

Trump has been trying to show voters that he is taking the virus seriously by holding briefings and canceling Republican convention events set for Jacksonville, Florida. Florida is among several states where the virus is raging.

So according to your readers he is a "sheep" for following viral restrictions.

5 months after he called it a Democratic hoax, 140,000 Americans dead and millions without jobs and now he wants to focus on it? Anyone that still supports this con man at this point is just as dumb as he is and clearly it's because they buy into his racist rhetoric that keeps them in his cult. Trump has no business in politics and should stay a reality TV celebrity and let the ones with experience solve the problems of the country.

This virus is not just a virus. It has been created and released. That is the hoax. It is being used and manipulated. That doesn't mean he thinks people are taking being sick or whom haven't died from it. He has done amazing things for our economy. Just ask any business owner out here. The media never tells you anything good he has done. Keep drinking the kill aid. What exactly would you have liked Trump to do? He isn't the boss anyway. We are not a dictatorship. The Congress is the one to be mad at.

Don't blame him. The HELL with all these freaking pussies. In a couple of years. Baseball won't exist. At least not the way it does today. Just like boxing.

3:34 just ignore that jackass. He showed up a month ago and hasn't said anything factual. They are just stirring the pot and trying to get a response. Do what everyone else does. Just pass over his comments. All from the CNN script anyway. He reads CNN. Then like Biden. He uses it here as if he came up with it. EMBARRASSING.

2:08 you are wrong. Trump stopped all air travel with China due to the virus in late January but was called a xenophobe by Pelosi who went to a Chinese restaurant in San Francisco and told everyone to go out and eat at these restaurants. Also Schumer and De Blasio both idiots told Ny to ride the subway and ignore the President and along with The rest of the Democrat so called leadership condemned the President for taking preventative action. The President rightly left the Chinese virus response up to the Governors and followed the advice of the CDC ( which is manned by career Govt employees). He had no choice and let it be known that he would follow their guidelines. Its not Trumps fault these Dem & Rhino Govs have mishandled the crisis !

It is still a dumbocrat hoax!

And look what the dumbocrat governors have doe to the jobs. And don't forget Cuomo and Wolf murdering elders in nursing homes.

Blame Trump all you want. Claim that water isn't wet too.

You're pathetic! Dumbocrats taking orders from PRC are doing this. Dumbocrats will destroy this country and many major cities to try to tip the outcome of elections.
Well I got news, Trump 2020 MAGA!

I can't wait to Pelosi stroke out right on live TV when they announce Trump's win in November.

208 is a paid communist thats intent on destroying this Country with lies, deception and disinformation...yet they blame others. "It" sits at the ready hitting the F5 button all day, "IT" is the first poster of every article. IT will be exposed before long.

Personally I think he dosent want to participate because of so many sports disrespecting the Anthem and America....but you do you.

@3:34 Clinton at least wouldn't have gotten rid of the Pandemic Task Force leaving us totally unprepared. Clinton also wouldn't have claimed it was all a made up hoax. Clinton also wouldn't have politicized masks to the point of baby boomers bitching about how being required to wear a mask in Wal-Mart is a threat to their civil liberties.

But yeah, everything's gotta be about "Hillary and Nancy" to you losers.

208 lock down, frozen economy, can’t leave your house, mask, social distancing and so many other restrictions came from the White House and Trump. Not Biden, Clinton or sanders they were all against the lock downs and made fun of it. So you agree with trump but you wish he took it a step further? Even your trolling is lame. Go back to Sams club and eat your sweaty pizza

2:08, He's correct it is a hoax. Even bigger than the one where two airliners took down the World Trade Center. As for the ones with "experience", they're the ones who have created all this Country's problems in the past 40+ years!!!

Biden, Clinton were hiding in their basements - Hillary a face lift - Biden a brain teaser 😂😂😂 I just don't understand why Democrat supporters like to pay more taxes, have China dictate what you eat and where, have jobs disappear, or losing their homes. Get your head out of the car litter box.
