"But I guess Trump speaks his mind, whatever the topic."

He speaks our mind as well. I saw it, what is the freakin' deal, the jockeys weren't trading jabs and even though they are animals at full throttle in any race, even track sometimes runners give each other a "flat tire" or come close to it. This isn't Marcus of Queens-bury rules here this is mano-e-mano till' the finish, and they fubar'd that.

Another stab at our culture just like that idiot kneeling, and anything that destroys our culture he speaks out, and I am damn proud that he does. Am I the only guy that see's it? Maybe not...

Horse racing isn't really a cage match like you suggest. It's called the sport of kings and it's pretty well regulated (mafia fixes notwithstanding). There are rules about impeding progress of other horses, they didn't pull a "1972 Olympic Men's Basketball" where a soviet referee started making up phantom calls to guarantee a Soviet win over a dominant USA team. But hey, I don't know what I'm talking about so you have that to consider :-)

Actually it’s very much Marquis de Queensbury, it is NOT mano-a-mano, and it NOT a stab at our culture. Interference has been against the rules for a long time. They don’t really like having to put horses down on live TV, bad for the ratings, not to mention they’re freaking expensive and only make the money back as breed stock.

No, you are not alone as Trump speaks his mind and we know who he is
he is not a college trained political hack taught in polictical correctness
which any real American hates, he is one of us Americans.

Maybe we are becoming extinct but I am not changing to a socialist.
