Is "potentially" really an outrageous claim?
Yes. It really is.
Trump does not read, cant spell, and has spectacularly terrible grammar. And we are talking basic grammar. He cant even use a computer.
Honestly he may only be semi literate.

Wolff quotes economic adviser Gary Cohn writing in an email: “It’s worse than you can imagine … Trump won’t read anything—not one-page memos, not the brief policy papers, nothing. He gets up halfway through meetings with world leaders because he is bored.”
That quote is from his top economic advisor who trump himself chose.

Why is not going to this pointless ceremony such a big deal? You said yourself the ceremony is just tradition. Plenty of athletes have chosen not to go, some for political reasons and some not. Didn’t see any statements from the whitehouse or replacement events taking place

He disinvited a team that clearly had no intention of showing up as a team. No real biggie. Gave them what they wanted.
Trump clearly wants this to be a big deal

Neither have I, but as much as you hate Trump and bleed all over the place about him every chance you get, you had to have been living under a damn rock to miss when her big exclusive about getting her hands on Trump's leaked tax return blew up in her face on live television when it was shown he paid more than any of the other presidential candidates by a WIDE margin.

Jesus, you've already lured in 5 Poliboarders. How many of those frickers are you trying to draw in here?

Usually not basically en masse. No point in the invite at all at that point. Hence the disinvite.

As if the media wouldn't had made it a big deal if only 10 players showed up. Cmon

Trump pulled a "you can't fire me because I quit" on the Eagles.
They weren't showing up anyways.

If we're being super-technical here, yeah maybe (I don't read all the balance sheets and whatever's been discovered and revealed about Trump's technicals through the years so...), but how come basically the ENTIRE WORLD knew who Trump was before POTUS? How come Studio 54 and Michael Jackson among others knew Trump? How come there are Trump Hotels and properties all around the globe that people frequent on the reg? How come Trump's a celebrity? How come Trump owned a professional football team? How come Trump converted his dad's states-based real estate company into a multi-international brand? I mean, at some point, common sense has to prevail when we talk about this man.

This whole thing would have been a non story had Trump done nothing. He is the one that made this a big story and made it about the national anthem and the troops. Its 100% propaganda on his part.

You should read my posts more carefully before throwing out insults. Notice I said in any given year when stating I doubt he paid $1 in taxes. I chose that wording for a reason and I am right, so son, you are the clown.
I am aware trump paid significant taxes in a single year due to a one time event that was shown on the two pages of the tax return he intentionally leaked himself to fool the gullible. Now as for all those other years he will not release as I said I doubt he paid $1 in taxes in any given year you want to pick. Note:

Here's the Times' report at the time, titled "Donald Trump Tax Records Show He Could Have Avoided Taxes for Nearly Two Decades, The Times Found":
"Donald J. Trump declared a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns, a tax deduction so substantial it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying any federal income taxes for up to 18 years, records obtained by The New York Times show.
"The 1995 tax records, never before disclosed, reveal the extraordinary tax benefits that Mr. Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, derived from the financial wreckage he left behind in the early 1990s through mismanagement of three Atlantic City casinos, his ill-fated foray into the airline business and his ill-timed purchase of the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.
?
"Tax experts hired by The Times to analyze Mr. Trump's 1995 records said that tax rules especially advantageous to wealthy filers would have allowed Mr. Trump to use his $916 million loss to cancel out an equivalent amount of taxable income over an 18-year period."

The disinvite was childish but this is the lamest part
I mean come on, that’s so disingenuous. Lame gesture to toss some red meat towards your base

These fans are still invited to the White House to be part of a different type of ceremony — one that will honor our great country, pay tribute to the heroes who fight to protect it, and loudly and proudly play the National Anthem. I will be there at 3:00 p.m. with the United States Marine Band and the United States Army Chorus to celebrate America."
