BREAKING: President Donald Trump has congratulated the Los Angeles Dodgers on their thrilling victory over the Toronto Blue Jays in the 2025 World Series, declaring in a Truth Social post, “SEE YOU ALL AT THE WHITE HOUSE!!!” This announcement comes just hours after the Dodgers clinched the championship in a dramatic 5-4 win during Game 7, which extended into 11 innings on Saturday.
The Dodgers’ triumph marks their second consecutive World Series title, following their 2024 win, making them the first team to achieve back-to-back championships since the New York Yankees from 1998 to 2000. Trump praised the team’s resilience, stating, “A lesser group of men would never have been able to win that game, or game 6, for that matter.” He also commended the ownership for their exceptional leadership.
The victory is particularly significant as it revives a traditional custom of championship teams visiting the White House, a practice that had seen a decline during Trump’s first term. The Dodgers’ visit will follow a similar event with the NHL’s Florida Panthers, marking a return to this long-standing tradition.
Earlier this year, in April 2025, Trump welcomed the Dodgers to the White House, where he took a subtle jab at California’s Democratic senators, Gavin Newsom and Adam Schiff, who were absent from the ceremony. “We have a couple senators here. I just don’t particularly like them, so I won’t introduce them,” he remarked, highlighting the political tensions surrounding sports diplomacy.
The Dodgers’ victory comes on the heels of Trump’s controversial deployment of thousands of National Guard troops to Los Angeles in June amid escalating immigration protests that occasionally turned violent. Governor Newsom and the state’s attorney general have challenged this deployment as unlawful, adding to the drama surrounding the team’s win and Trump’s upcoming White House invitation.
As fans celebrate this monumental achievement, all eyes will be on the Dodgers as they prepare for their official visit to the White House. This event is set to further amplify the narrative of sports intertwining with national politics in the United States.
Stay tuned for further updates as we follow the Dodgers’ journey and the implications of their historic win on the sports and political landscape.
