On Monday, Donald Trump ripped Alex Rodriguez, the embattled Yankees slugger who has been linked to a performance-enhancing drug dealer in Miami and whose $29 million salary this year is more than the Houston Astros payroll. Trump called him a “druggie” who should stop being paid.
Trump, on Twitter, called Rodriguez a “joke” and said the Yankees should “immediately stop paying” Rodriguez because he “signed his contract without telling them he was a druggie.”
Rodriguez is on the disabled list to start the season.
A-Rod’s salary is more than the entire @astros. Half the players on @astros will have better seasons than him. A-Rod is a joke!

The @yankees should immediately stop paying A-Rod–he signed his contract without telling them he was a druggie.
