The D.C. Council has announced a deal regarding the Washington Commanders' stadium, despite former President Trump's threat to block the project if the team's name was not reverted to 'Washington Redskins.' Trump publicly stated his opposition, suggesting he would impede stadium construction in Washington D.C. if the name change didn't occur. The council's decision to proceed signifies a potential clash with the former president, highlighting the contentious history surrounding the team's name and its impact on political and economic decisions related to the franchise.
