It should not be surprising that Donald Trump would take any opportunity to upstage Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Remember this is the “man” who pouted and lashed out when a teenage environmental activist Greta Thunberg was chosen as the 2019 Time Person of the Year.
This is also the Chief Executive Demagogue that decided to resume Coronavirus briefings by himself because he feared the scientists like Dr. Fauci would overshadow him, and more importantly, refute his real-time lies and misstatements.
Now that the Liar in Chief has totally resumed his disinformation and science-denying ways (including wanting states to reopen again, minimizing the importance of masks, and accusing Dr. Fauci of misinforming the country,) it has been revealed that the Mad King, in his insecure desire to upstage Fauci, apparently made up an invitation to throw out the first pitch at an August 15 baseball game at Yankee Stadium.
Apparently annoyed that Dr. Fauci was asked to throw out the first pitch of the Washington National-New York Yankees Thursday game, Trump told reporters in the White House Briefing room that day that he had been invited to throw out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium on August 15.
That was news to the New York Yankees who had no idea what Mr. Trump was talking about.
Imagine how Trump would have reacted if it was he, instead of Fauci, invited to the Nationals-Yankees game and he would have had to personally see both teams kneel during the National Anthem. The dark possibilities are endless.

After the Yankees organization had to endure condemnation for the phantom invitation, the Stable Genius decided to cancel the illusionary appearance, tweeting:
“Because of my strong focus on the China Virus, including scheduled meetings on Vaccines, our economy and much else, I won’t be able to be in New York to throw out the opening pitch for the @Yankees on August 15,” Mr. Trump wrote on Twitter on Sunday, using a racist name for the coronavirus. “We will make it later in the season!”
Yeah, his strong focus by playing golf with people like Lindsey Graham and Brett Favre.
Take me out to the Ballgame has a new meaning for the Liar in Chief.
Voters should show him the true meaning on November 3, 2020, so he could spend his time at the ballpark and golf course as much as he likes after January 20, 2021.
