" Trump is about to face the loudest boos of his life," according to one conservative group responding to the latest censorship news involving the president.
Onlookers were stunned this weekend as they discovered that the US Open had warned its broadcasters to censor any potential boos of Donald Trump's appearance.
Organizers of the tennis event reportedly emailed broadcasters with a message saying in part, "We ask all broadcasters to refrain from showing any disruptions or reactions in response to the president’s attendance in any capacity."
Online, political analysts and observers ridiculed the president and the organizers themselves.
Conservatives over at Republicans against Trump noted that, "The US Open sent an email to broadcasters instructing them to censor any crowd reactions or protests during Trump’s appearance," and added, "Trump is about to face the loudest boos of his life."
Wu Tang is for the Children, a popular liberal X account boasting hundreds of thousands of followers, said those at the United States Tennis Association "are cowards."'
Political analyst The Shallow State said, "As you may know, Trump plans to attend the US Open Men's Final. It's in NY. Tomorrow. I expect if he's announced to the crowd, he'll be booed."
"Apparently, under pressure from Trump's team, the US Open has sent an email to broadcasters, ordering them to censor any reactions or protests from the crowd to Trump. I kid you not," the account wrote late Saturday. "Here's hoping there's so much sustained booing, for so long, that it's impossible to censor, and play gets delayed."
A self-identified professional scientist using the screenname Mug of Glop also chimed in, saying, "lmao Trump is the absolute weakest b---- in history."
Ex-MSNBC host Keith Olbermann said, "Tennis Association demands broadcasters CENSOR reactions to Trump at U.S. Open."
"There's a reason tennis has sunk to triviality in this country in the last 40 years," he added. "It's terrified, condescending management like this."
