I didn't particularly like it. ... I didn't like it. I played tight end," Trump began."I could catch the ball good, but I didn't particularly like having some guy that was lifting weights all day long and came from a bad neighborhood ... and he sees me," Trump laughed.Compton and Lewan chuckled at Trump's remarks, and that laughter then became the focal point of a request for comment from the Washington Post.'Articulate, well thought out, [and] insightful.'Compton revealed in subsequent post on X that he received an email from the outlet with the direct question, "What is amusing about Trump's remark?"The unnamed Washington Post reporter specifically quoted Trump's comments and claimed the remarks had received "a lot of attention online.""We knew that there'd be a reaction," Compton said in the video on his X account. "We are getting our first media encounter.""Their question is: Why did we find that amusing?" Compton explained. "You already know what they want to do with this thing," he continued. "You know what kind of picture they want to paint, you know what kind of box they want to put us in. You know their vision for this entire question."The ex-NFL player joked that Trump's remarks were actually an admittance that he isn't tough enough to play football against a player like himself and that Trump would likely get his vertebrae compressed by a "middle linebacker."
