President Donald Trump expressed that he would not have supported changing the Washington Redskins' name to the Washington Commanders, stating that the new name "doesn't have the same ring" as the original. Trump described the decision to change the name as unnecessary and suggested that winning could make the current name more acceptable to fans. He indicated he might support the Commanders name if the team starts winning more games. Trump also offered to assist the franchise with negotiations for a new stadium in Washington, D.C. Despite Trump's comments, the Washington Commanders organization has no plans to revert to their former name. The team changed its name in 2020 after decades of controversy surrounding the Redskins nickname.
