...doing at a pro wrestling event?
Aside from a photo op, I mean.
Did they really think this wasn't further image tarnishing?
Forget the boos. He shouldn't even be there.

That stunt isn't going to please anyone who isn't already a cult member.
There's no upside; only a downside.
He found that out.

That is really all he is capable of. He should not be anywhere near the WH or DC.

But, he was just a man about town in those days.
Maybe Linda McMahon asked him to do something for them.

They were showing videos of WWE's WH visit on Thursday.

Still barfable, though.

A video of Donald Trump was shown on stage at WWE's Summer Slam as fans mercilessly booed the president.
The video showed the moment Trump, who made a massive Epstein files radio blunder, met Triple H at the White House on Thursday, however fans loudly booed the video.

The video was posted to X by prominent young Democrat Harry Sisson, who captioned the post: "WOW!!! The whole crowd at Summer Slam just booed Trump as pictures of him were shown on the screens. The American people are sick and tired of Trump!"

The video showed the moment Trump signed an executive order reinstating the Presidential Fitness Test in public schools and expanding the scope of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition alongside Paul “Triple H” Levesque, the chief content officer for WWE. It comes after a Trump family member revealed the latest chilling symptom of his cognitive decline and revealed he is “far gone”.

But, I still don't think a POTUS should be involved.
Not that it would stop him.

care about the crowd reaction. I can't get past wondering why our President thinks this is a valuable use of our time. Why is he at a theatrical wrestling match in the first place?

Guess WWE went anti-woke and hopefully will become broke in the future.
