RIP Pete Rose
-
Not sure if this should be here or in the "Trump Lies" thread but here goes.
Days before Ohio’s presidential primary in 2016, the first-time candidate told a crowd in West Chester, Ohio, “We gotta let Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame.” Trump also tweeted a photo of an autographed baseball he had “just received from @PeteRose_14.” The note on the ball read, “Mr. Trump, please make America great again,” along with Rose’s signature.
Ray Genco, an attorney for Rose, said in an email to the Washington Post on the eve of the 2016 primary: “Pete has made a point not to ‘endorse’ any particular presidential candidate. Though he respects everyone who works hard for our country — any outlet that misinterpreted a signed baseball for an endorsement was wrong. Pete did not send any candidate a baseball or a note of endorsement.”
