Tennis legend Martina Navratilova hits out at Donald Trump and labels former president's ear bandage a 'PR stunt'

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova isn't buying Donald Trump's enormous ear bandage at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee following the failed assassination attempt on the ex-President in Pennsylvania over the weekend.

Responding to a comment on X, the winner of 18 major singles titles described Trump's bandage as a 'PR stunt,' which drew criticism from conservatives online.

Specifically, Navratilova was accused of minimizing the attempt on Trump's life.

Tell you what...let her get her ear shot up and we’ll see how much of a stunt she will think her bandage is.

Legend? I thought a legend was something that was not true.

A guy that I worked with had a small cancerous growth removed from one of his ears. He wore a bandage covering half of that side of his head for several days.

She really is awful. I enjoyed watching her play tennis back in the day before she became a hateful, woke idiot.

You can always tell when someone’s once stellar career is circling the drain - they say/do stupid things; anything for attention.

I see similar thins with Robert DeNiro, whoopi goldberg, etc. The last gasp of a dying career.

They don’t realize they’re only embarrassing themselves.

I’m watching Kamala give a speech about Project 2025, again and again.

Calls it Trump’s Project 2025.

Martin hates tranny women in sports because she doesn’t want another tranny woman beating her record — which very likely may happen.

Fled the Soviet empire for freedom and comfort in Reagan’s America and apparently wants big government and censorship in this country now.

Another foreign hooker with a big mouth. Nice. She needs to take her goat smellin’ azz home if she wants to play Politics for Dumbasses. All you troll fart checkers take a break. I already checked. She was born in Prague which isn’t in the U.S.

Not necessarily. Otherwise the phrase “legend in his own mind” would be meaningless.

Anyone who has injured an ear knows why that big cover is necessary.
Even just a nick is painful to the touch and bleeds like hell on contact.
I doubt Trump is on pain meds, he likes to keep a clear head.

Jessica Tarlov on the FIVE said dems need to talk about it, all while I'm screaming at the TV, it has NOTHING to do with Trump. These people are sooo dishonest. Talk about misinformation.

So, he is supposed to leave his mangled ear out there for the world to see?

That’s probably going to need some plastic surgery to get back to the right “look.”

I have no problem with bandaging a gun shot wound 48 hours after it happened. I would have had my whole head wrapped up, a la Spirit of ‘76!

I have stood by Martina for years even knowing her politics. I am a tennis fan and also agree with her position on males competing as women

However, not any more. She’s gone full loon.

Shouldn't we wait for Billie Jean King to pipe in.
