Trump posted on social media on Sunday that he wanted to see the Commanders and Major League Baseball's Cleveland Guardians return to Native American names that each team abandoned years ago.

The Washington franchise has changed away from its nickname twice, first changing from Redskins in 2020 before its most recent change to Commanders in 2022. After retiring the Redskins name and logo, the team adopted the temporary moniker of the Washington Football Team, using the same branding and uniforms from before, sans Redskins insignia.
