‘Absolutely nothing nice about this man’

Former President Donald Trump got the professional wrestling world talking when he appeared on The Undertaker’s podcast last week ahead of the 2024 presidential election against Vice President Kamala Harris.

WWE legend Mick Foley weighed in on Trump’s bid for president and had only critical words about the former business mogul turned politician.

“I think it’s important to have a moment where enough is enough,” Foley said in a video on his Instagram. “For me enough was enough 8 years ago. The Undertaker is right when he says Donald Trump made politics fun again… for about three weeks in 2016. But it’s eight years later and there’s absolutely nothing fun about this guy.

“To me, there’s nothing fun about a man who could be the next president of the United States talking about the enemy within. Making it clear that this was not a mistake, that this is his starting point: ‘The enemy within, the enemy within, the enemy within.’

Foley said what was frustrating for him was that hardworking Americans couldn’t see that Trump was “such an obvious fraud.”

Foley then made other criticisms of Trump’s leadership and the Supreme Court.

“So, Donald Trump, you’re going to put me in jail because I criticized your Supreme Court, because I think Clarence Thomas is an embarrassment to the Supreme Court,” Foley added. ‘I think Samuel Alito is a terrible person who does not belong on the highest court in the land. I don’t think Brett Kavanaugh’s Senate interview would have gotten him a job as a dishwasher, let alone a lifetime serve on the Supreme Court.”

Foley was a three-time WWE Champion who appeared in multiple promotions and took many knocks from a Hell in a Cell cage while competing in brutal hardcore matches.

Trump played a role in WWE. His old Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, New Jersey, was the sponsor of WrestleMania IV and Wrestlemania V, and he participated in a hair vs. hair match at WrestleMania 23 at Ford Field in Detroit.

Foley is endorsing Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for the presidential ticket.

Trump was ahead of Harris in a Fox News national survey on Oct. 16, 50%-48%.

However, Harris has a six-point lead among voters from the top seven battleground states (within the margin of error for that subgroup), and the candidates are tied at 49% each among voters in close counties (where the Biden-Trump 2020 margin is the same). was less than 10 points).

Trump’s advantage comes from having a higher share of counties he won by more than 10 points (64%-35%) in 2020 than Harris does of counties Biden won by more than 10 points (58%-39%) .
