One day after the visit to the White House by Boston Red Sox players celebrating the teams 2018 World Series championship, the hosts on Fridays edition of Morning Joe on MSNBC asserted that if even one player didnt want to go, the others should have stayed away as well.
The strongest comment came from co-host Joe Scarborough, who said no one on the baseball team should have taken part because Donald Trump is the most racist president certainly in our lifetime.
While discussing what happened on Thursday, the panelists pointed to the fact that Alex Cora -- the team manager and a Puerto Rican -- and almost all of the black and Hispanic players with the Red Sox refused to attend to protest the presidents racist rhetoric.
Co-host Mika Brzezinski joined the discourse by stating:
I usually am the one that you guys make fun of for not really knowing enough about sports, but Ive been watching you coach baseball, and I know enough about what it means to be on a team.
And if one member of the team is not comfortable or two or three, why would anybody on that team go? I dont get it. I mean, isnt it all about unity?

Hey Joe, tell me again about the time you had your intern head stomped to death.

Darn, I missed them talking about the Red Sox visit to the White House? Oh no, how can I live with myself? Did they say that Joey Logano and Roger Penske shouldn’t be at the White House either?
Unwarranted accusations of racism come from racists.
‘Shame on me. I guess. Or not.’
haven’t you learned by now that nothing is ever to be posted on this forum that is potentially unsettling and contrary to prevailing opinion, lest someone be needlessly triggered...? how long will it take for this to sink in...?
Well, almost 72 so it better happen soon. :-)
Most Racist President in Our Lifetime
When did Trump say we had to sit in the back of the bus like Obama did??.
Out standing point they never got their fill of slaves of any color.
Not one member of the team is female. The team is sexist.
In addition other than one member of the Oakland A’s not one major league ballplayer has taken a knee during the National Anthem. Racists!
Many ballplayers make unbelievably huge salaries. David Price of the Boston Red Sox is being paid $231 million over 7 years. Part of the 1 per cent! Baseball needs socialism. All players should be paid minimum wage and live in cold water flats, eating ramen noodles. (Liberals share the misery!) Red Sox owner John Henry should also be subject to this instead of being able to own big companies like The Boston Globe.
