Pete Rose was reinstated by MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred on Tuesday, making him eligible for baseball’s Hall of Fame. Rose’s career was marked by gambling scandals and his permanent ban was lifted eight months after his death. The decision was met with pushback on social media, including from The Atlantic’s Norman Ornstein.

Trump, per his style, has thoughts about all this, writing on Truth Social that "baseball, which is dying all over the place, should get off its fat, lazy ass, and elect Pete Rose, even though far too late, into the Baseball Hall of Fame!"

Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson were reinstated by baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred on Tuesday, making both eligible for the sport’s Hall of Fame after their careers were tarnished by sports gambling scandals.
