‘He Can Just Say ‘Black Person’ Next Time’: Donald Trump Called Out for Racism Again After Saying He Hated Playing Football Because He Didn’t Like ‘Some Guy…from a Bad Neighborhood’ Tackling Him

Donald Trump has stirred the pot once again on social media with some fresh controversial remarks he made on a podcast where he said that he didn’t enjoy playing football when he was younger because he didn’t like a player “from a bad neighborhood” tackling him. The former president sat down with the hosts of the “Bussin with the Boys” podcast on Tuesday and talked in part about playing football as a young adult.

I didn’t particularly like it,” Trump said. “I could catch the ball good, but I didn’t particularly like having some guy that was, uh, lifting weights all day long and came from a bad neighborhood. Yeah, and he sees me, and they were tackling hard.” Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign posted a clip of those comments, which garnered thousands of impressions on X. Many viewers estimated that Trump was clearly invoking racism. He didn’t like poor African American kids touching his white privilege. pic.twitter.com/Zz7iRH2vfO— Jules Morgan
