trump’s advisors told him he was going to be booed mercilessly, so he isn’t going this year and he’s canceling the F-22 flyover too.

@Bumbles that and the national anthem.
There is nothing patriotic about national sporting events.
International events, for the victors, okay.

@Carla Agreed. I used to think the National Anthem at baseball games was sort of a quaint tradition, but as benign patriotism morphed into nationalism, jingoism, and now fascism, I want no part of it. You might as well ask me to sing “Deutschland über alles.”
