Derek Jeter Broke His Ankle Because Of Donald Trump Karma

Up until three days ago, Derek Jeter was the proud owner of an apartment in Trump World Tower – a Trump monstrosity located between 47th and 48th street on 1st avenue in Manhattan. According to The Donald, Jeter sold his east side apartment three days ago, which, for those of you scoring at home, is one day before Jeter broke his ankle in Game 1 of the ALCS. Trump, shameless self-promoter that he is, proclaimed this calamity as part of the inner-workings of his karmic power.

Derek Jeter had a great career until 3 days ago when he sold his apartment at Trump World Tower- I told him not to sell- karma?

Jeter, hero-saint and righteous bearer of all the world’s good, was promptly defended by the Twitterverse with unflinching aggression.

DON’T YOU TALK BADLY ABOUT OUR JETER, SCUM OF THE EARTH TRUMP.

@rachelrach10 As a life-long #RedSox fan I still love Derek Jeter — this injury sucks, but not as sucky as @realdonaldtrump & his ego.

Then Trump went ahead and took a shot at A-Rod, once again crediting himself:

A-Rod was a great player when he lived at Trump Park Avenue— even though he was on the juice!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 15, 2012

Except Yankee fans weren’t, well, let’s just say, as quick, to defend their third baseman.

Lmao! RT @realdonaldtrump: A-Rod was a great player when he lived at Trump Park Avenue— even though he was on the juice!

“@realdonaldtrump: A-Rod was a great player when he lived at Trump Park Avenue— even though he was on the juice!”<Lmao

So what can we learn from all this? Donald Trump’s Twitter proves that everyone loves Derek Jeter and everyone hates Alex Rodriguez. So, nothing.
