    "Has @BubbaWallace apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX?" Trump said on Twitter.

    LOVE him or hate him, President Trump does have a big set of balls. As far as Bubba goes, well IMHO this would say a lot about his character IF he did apologize.

    Apologize for what? He had a genuine concern and raised it.

    It’s not like he planted it there himself.

    No hoax. Trump is trying to stoke racial tension.

    Funny how the garage Wallace was in is the only one that had a noose and he didn't find it someone else. Just stoking those racist fires again.

    I don't care if they run around on a field or drive in circles, their opinions are worth zero. No apology necessary.

    Yes, Wallace brought it to the attention of the racetrack authorities, they investigated, found it to be okay, done deal. All followed procedures, nothing to apologize about.

    Trump is an idiot of epic proportions. That garage pull rope was tied that way back in November of 2019, that proves that it wasn't a hoax.

    Bubba Wallace, if I recall, didn't bring it to NASCAR's attention. Someone in his crew did. The FBI discovered that the garage rope was tied that way in November of 2019 during the race that month.

    It was tied that way back in November of 2019. Wallace wasn't in that garage stall in November of 2019. That rope had nothing to do with Wallace.

    So someone planned this over a year in advance hoping that just by chance a black guy would stumble upon it. How deviously devious.

    How was someone who tied it over a year ago knew that he was going to be at that Garage And as someone else pointed out it's not a nose. It was to pull the door closed

    Didn’t know nooses were designed for hands. Sorry but if a car guy couldn’t see what that was, how is he allowed to drive a $million vehicle? Does the steering wheel look like a Frisbee to him? Does he see racist writing in the speedometer?

    Garage stall #4 also had a loop knot. It was untied after or during this investigation.

    The guy that assigned Bubba the garage must be the same guy that put the racist rope there. Evil genius!

    You mean the world's smallest noose? Explain how they would know a year in advance a black guy would be assigned that garage.
