President Trump Booed and Jeered at World Series Game
In a tradition that goes back decades, the sitting President of the United States attended a Major League Baseball World Series Game Sunday Night. This trip was made even easier by the fact that the team hosting the game was the President’s current home town team, the Washington Nationals.
What should have been a nice moment where fans of baseball, America’s pastime, could have shown some appreciation and respect for our President, turned nasty as President Trump was booed lustily by many of those in attendance.

During a wonderful moment while the crowd stood and cheered the United States Service members who appeared on the scoreboard video screen, the camera cut to the Commander-in-Chief, who attended the game with his wife Melania. The crowd quickly shifted from cheers to loud boos when the President was shown. There were also fans who chanted “lock him up” at the President as well.

It was not the only time during the game that the President was shown massive amounts of disrespect. two signs calling for impeachment. One, which hung from the upper deck simply read, “Impeach Trump!” The other was displayed prominently on TV behind home plate and said, “Veterans for Impeachment”.
Two fans, waved with 'veterans for impeachment' banner as Trump made a surprise appearance at #WorldSeries game.

This all comes on the heels of one of the biggest and most important military victories of the Trump Administration, the killing of ISIS founder and leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Even with this important achievement it seems as though many on the left refuse to give the President even a shred of respect.
