Not sure why you're being downvoted -- I think your comment is a perfectly reasonable statement to make.

partisanship has got to be at all time highs. My comment is likely seen as me defending trump and therefore anyone who dislikes trump just automatically downvotes it regardless of context. 2020 is awesome

The amusing part is, I can say with some amount of confidence that the Astros still would have done this if HRC has won. How the sitting president has any bearing on this is beyond me.

Was deflate gate somehow a reflection on Obama?

100% agreed. There is no correlation between Obama and deflate -gate or Trump/Astros Scandal. Its such a sensationalist thing to add (that I suppose works cause here we are talking about it) but overall my respect for journalism continues to go down. And its a shame cause this was an otherwise good article.

Well, they are orange.
