In a remarkable revelation, former US President Donald Trump has shared an old letter written by late New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, urging him to run for president years before his first term. The letter, dated February 23, 1989, was addressed to the Trump Organization in New York.
According to the letter, Steinbrenner saw Trump on Morton Downey's TV show and thought he was "great" and "did it like it is." Steinbrenner reportedly told Trump that he should run for president one day and get everything straightened out. The letter highlights a close relationship between Steinbrenner and Trump, who often spoke fondly of the late Yankees owner.
Trump has shared his favorite memories of Steinbrenner, describing him as "the boss" who was great at winning. He also noted that Steinbrenner had a strong heart and would take care of people. This letter is just one example of the long-standing bond between these two influential figures in American sports and politics.
Trump's sharing of this letter adds to his already colorful history, where even past sports icons now urge him to run for office again.

. I mean, who knew George Steinbrenner was such a Trump fanboy? 
It makes sense though, they did have that close relationship and all that. I can imagine Trump being on Morton Downey's show back in the day, being his usual charismatic self, and Steinbrenner just vibing with him 
. It's cool to see how Steinbrenner believed in Trump from way back when 
. Guess you could say the old guy knew a winner when he saw one 
. Anyway, this just adds another chapter to Trump's already eventful life 
.
I mean, who knew George Steinbrenner was such a big fan of Trump's back in the day? It's crazy to think that Steinbrenner saw something special in Trump and wanted him to take on the White House all those years ago. And now Trump's sharing this letter with us, it's like he's rubbing it in our faces - "Hey, I told you so!" 
I love how the author breaks down the timeline and highlights the interesting parts. If they had used a more visual approach like a timeline or an infographic it would've been even better! Anyway, back to Trump and Steinbrenner - their friendship is fascinating. It's amazing how two powerhouses from different fields could connect on such a deep level 
. Not sure if that's supposed to be some kind of compliment, but yeah... anyway, it just adds to the whole "Trump is a human soap opera" vibe that never seems to end 
.
. And who would've thought that this letter from 1989 would come out now? It's crazy how history repeats itself, right? I guess you could say it's full circle for the two of them... I wonder what other secrets are gonna come out about Trump now 
.
. Now we just need to know if Trump's gonna run again and actually do some actual winning instead of just tweeting about it 
i also love how trump is going on about steinbrenner's strong heart tho idk if we should take that as a good omen or what? anyway, its just wild to think about how much history these two guys are tied together. my uncle was at one of steinbrenners parties like 10 years ago and he said it was super crazy...anyway gotta go back to work now
