💨 Abstract

President Donald Trump has threatened to interfere with the Washington Commanders' plans for a new stadium if they don't revert to their previous name, the Washington Redskins, a name considered a racist slur by many Native American advocates. Trump claims there is significant demand for the name change, a sentiment disputed by groups like the Native American Rights Fund. The American Psychological Association has recommended against such names due to their harmful effects on Native American youth. Legally, Trump has the authority to intervene in D.C.
