Trump: Roger Clemens should be in Baseball Hall of Fame

Trump's Truth Social latest posts08-27 00:33

U.S. President Donald Trump posted on social media platform X on August 26, questioning why Roger Clemens is not in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York. Trump claimed that a group of jealous people with far less talent voted against Clemens' induction. Trump noted that Clemens was never convicted of or admitted to taking drugs.

Trump highlighted Clemens' career achievements: 354 wins, 7 Cy Young Awards (a record by 3), two World Series titles, and third all-time in strikeouts. Trump also mentioned that the baseball commissioner told him Pete Rose would be approved but waited until Rose died. "No wonder Baseball is in trouble!" Trump wrote.

The post has reignited debate over Hall of Fame voting criteria. Clemens has been repeatedly denied induction due to allegations of performance-enhancing drug use, which he has consistently denied.
