Ted... you wanna weigh in on this? - Lemmy.World

heh

In President Donald Trump’s memory, he was a high school baseball star.

“I was supposed to be a pro baseball player,” Donald Trump wrote in 2004. “At the New York Military Academy, I was captain of the baseball team. I worked hard like everyone else, but I had good talent.”

In a 2010 interview with MTV, Trump said, again, “I was supposed to be a professional baseball player,” this time adding a flourish: “Fortunately, I decided to go into real estate instead.” Three years later, Trump inflated his claim on Twitter, pegging himself not just as a pro prospect but the best player in the state.

And Trump tweeted: I played football and baseball, sorry, but said to be the best bball player in N.Y. State-ask coach Ted Dobias-said best he ever coached.

Was Donald Trump Good at Baseball?

The president has long claimed he could have gone pro. We looked into it.

It was in 1964 and it was in a little local paper. It simply said, TRUMP HOMERS TO WIN THE GAME. I just loved it and I will never forget it

Okay, this is just something else. Did his dad pay the local paper to add his name? Or did they make a fake paper just for Donald like his fake “Time Man of the Year” he has hanging on the wall? Either way, I don’t think he knows it’s fake, if it isn’t a complete fabrication, and that is hilarious.

AND if this is his highlight? Al Bundy “Married with Children” vibes. Or maybe Napoleon Dynamite Uncle Rico. He’s a god damned joke!

I would assume anyone old enough to be his childhood coach has probably passed away by now.
It’s his current coach
2 or 3 times over.
Honestly, these are the photos that we need to be sharing. The guy is a joke and needs to be made fun of to take him down a few pegs.
Holy shit he’s tough. Just look.
Just being 6 ft+ alone is good enough to make you the top of your sport in a small private school. Netherlands obviously excluded. Classic case of small pond syndrome.
