In a tweet that is sure to outrage the outrage mob even more, President Trump took aim at what many would consider one of his base’s favorite sports – NASCAR.
Trump claims NASCAR’s “lowest ratings EVER” are due to the decision to ban the Confederate Flag and what he calls the Bubba Wallace noose “hoax”…
Has @BubbaWallace apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX? That & Flag decision has caused lowest ratings EVER!

Interestingly, SpeedSports.com reports that this weekend’s IndyCar/NASCAR twin-bill drew strong ratings for NBC with a 30% increase when compared to 2019.
