“They’ll Destroy Themselves”: President Donald Trump Addresses WNBA Stars Snubbing National Anthem During the Finals

President Donald Trump recently criticized the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries for exiting the court during the national anthem throughout their WNBA Finals series. With Atlanta currently leading the series two games to one, the President suggested that such protests could negatively impact the league's growing popularity.

Vice President JD Vance has also expressed disapproval regarding the teams' conduct during the pre-game ceremonies. Although the league's rulebook outlines expectations for player behavior during the anthem, enforcement has been suspended since 2017, and neither the league nor the teams have provided a specific reason for the current actions.
