“Why would Trump care about throwing out the first pitch? Why would the American people care? Get over yourself.”
Excellent point, spend the time draining the swamp.

No owner in American baseball history has ever made such a statement, and; no owner tells the President what he is allowed to do or isn’t. Only Congress has traditionally had that oversight.

Apart from the politics, Maryland is a very nice state. Just make sure you’re simply passin’ through instead of movin’ in.
