It doesn't appear the Cleveland Guardians are willing to change the team's name despite a demand from President Donald Trump.

The Guardians changed their name from the Indians following the 2021 season amid pressure from Native American groups who said the name was offensive.

However, President Trump believes sentiment has changed.

"Our great Indian people, in massive numbers, want this to happen," the president posted on Truth Social, without providing evidence. "Their heritage and prestige is systematically being taken away from them. Times are different now than they were three or four years ago. We are a Country of passion and common sense."
