VIDEO: Donald Trump Got Booed at Nationals Park Again During Game 7 Even Though He Wasn't There
By Chris Russo
Well, Nationals fans are nothing if not persistent. Fans attended a World Series Game 7 viewing party at Nationals Park on Wednesday and, though they later celebrated their first championship, their cheers turned to boos when a President Trump campaign ad was shown on the big board mid-game.

He has to accept the fact that his approval rating in DC is just not very high pic.twitter.com/Qo2TJhQ20g

After President Donald Trump attended Game 5 in Washington and received a not-so-warm welcome, Nationals fans kept it going when they saw a Trump's mug air during FOX's broadcast of Game 7 on the Nationals Park jumbotron.
I remember someone saying..."They wouldn't Booo @potus in Houston" (didn't end well)https://t.co/J2Vo9XqLZg

It also appears that, similar to the crowd in Game 5, the viewing partygoers chanted, "Lock him up!"

It is still uncertain as to whether the Nationals will visit the White House with the Commissioner's Trophy when the time comes. A number of winning players and/or teams in multiple sports have stayed away from the White House during the Trump presidency, among them Carlos Correa with the 2017 Astros, and Alex Cora, along with some of the 2018 Red Sox.
Whether or not the players attend, I can guarantee a large portion of the fans will turn off the television that day.
