Hill’s prior tweet where she slammed President Trump as “a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself with other white supremacists” got her in some hot water last month.
Reactions from the American People
Various Americans have reacted differently to the suspension of Jemele Hill. Some believe it was justified, while others view it as abhorrent. A great deal of the divide is political.
Left-leaning Americans and critics of the President view Hill’s suspension as unfair. Many of these people have taken to social media to censure ESPN. They’ve also asserted racism as the underlying cause of her suspension.
Conversely, many right-leaning Americans and supporters of President Trump feel very differently. They feel Hill’s suspension was merited and long overdue. Conservatives have also made the case that politics have no place in sports.
