The Cleveland Guardians do not sound eager to change their nickname back to the "Indians" after President Donald Trump called for the franchise to go back to its previous moniker in a social media post over the weekend. Trump also called for the NFL's Washington Commanders to go back to the "Redskins" team name.

Epstein headlines, tariffs and foreign conflicts haven't kept President Trump too busy to pick at an old scab that, for some Clevelanders, is still healing. Why it matters: The rebranding of the Cleveland Indians to the Guardians is one of the most polarizing subjects among local sports fans and residents over the past decade.
