keep in mind Mick Foley, just like most wrestlers, is a carny. And I say this as a pro-wrestling fan myself.
Every wrestler, especially older ones, all seem to have their limit or line they'll stand on. everything prior to that is fine, anything over that line? they'll make a stand.
I mean Foley himself still calls Vince "Mr. McMahon" and respects him even after all the bullshit he's done. hell the company still respects McMahon to the point they even had a clip of him on TV at the end of John Cena's retirement match and out of ALL the clips they played THAT clip was the one that made Cena tear up. Make no mistake, just like Foley, Cena might be wholesome and be great with make a wish kids but he STILL supports a man that shat on a womans head and sexually assaulted her plus more. Foley is the same. They all are.
CM Punk says he's all pro-trans and a feminist but is more than happy to wrestle in Saudi Arabia and take their money even AFTER he said wrestlers that do (this was when he had quit WWE) are "sucking Saudi blood covered dicks" to which he now does. They're all hypocrites at the end of the day, they're carnys. I mean at one point Punk claimed that WWE nearly killed him by having him wrestle injured, they fired him on his wedding day, and here he is wrestling for the company again, his damn wife too! They have no morals, none of them.
So Foley taking this stand RIGHT NOW? he's a fan of the Princess Bride, he loved Reiners movies, that's it. that's all this is. IF Trump hadn't said anything? Foley would have gladly signed that legends contract renewal in June.
