Dave Portnoy took his own opportunity in the speech of the Donald Trump congress on Tuesday, but saved his true vitriol for Democratic critics of the president on Wednesday.
Asked by Fox News' Will Cain On the protests and frequent interruptions of Trump's political opponents, the founder of Bars Sports and supporter of Trump criticized the Democrats for what he saw as children's acrobatics.
“… There are many people who complain about (Trump) trying to do exactly what he said he was chosen,” said Portnoy, 47. “And then you see something like last night, and feel like a parody of kindergarten.”
The Democrat of New Mexico, Melanie Stansbury, was seen holding a sign that said 'this is not normal', while other representatives had similar slogans such as 'Save Medicaid' and 'Protect Veterans'.
Elon Musk, the president's billionaire donor who now leads the newly formed government efficiency department (Doge) as a “special government employee”, was also a popular objective for Democrats on Tuesday.
In particular, Texas Democrat Al Green was expelled after shouting and shaking his cane to Trump during the speech.

All this, from criticism to theatricality, are not existed, in regards to Portnoy.
“And I am not sure that it is very different from many states of the unions, where there are theater and things,” he said. 'But it is surreal. As, that is why I tune in, to be totally honest.
“It's as if you were watching reality shows,” he continued. “But it is also a bit disgusting that these are elected officials and that it is so divided and the small banners with the failures and all the different things that happen, the guy with the cane obtaining the boot. It is difficult to believe.
“As if you were an alien and you land on Earth and you are, hey, these are the chosen people of the elected officials, the humans, the aliens would invade us in three seconds looking at this show of clowns that we advance.”
Portnoy could not help cutting a particular line of the president's leadership.
When Trump declared that “the days of the government of bureaucrats not chosen have ended,” Portnoy quickly made a reference to Musk.
“I have to admit that this did not land since Elon is basically co -chair,” Portnoy said in X.

Portnoy criticized Trump for Trump for the role of Musk last week in a publication that questioned everything from Doge to Trump's decisions to bring the accused sexual traffickers Andrew and Tristan Tate in Romania.
Last week, Portnoy questioned Trump especially, from his inability to publish a full report on the deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein to the president's decision to return to the accused sexual traffickers Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan of Romania.
“What is the point to eliminate illegal and criminals while somehow becomes a safe shelter for the Tate brothers?” Portnoy asked.
The two were allowed to leave Romania last week after an alleged intervention by the Trump administration. However, the president said Thursday that he knew nothing about his release.
The brothers, who are national teams of the United States and the United Kingdom, but lived near Bucharest, were arrested in 2022 for charges of trafficking in persons, inappropriate sexual behavior, money laundering and formation of a group of organized crimes. They have denied any irregularity.
According to the brothers' lawyer, the 'main' reason for which they feel safe to return to the United States is that 'Donald Trump is the president'.
