President Trump chastised NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace weeks after a rope that resembled a noose was found in his car stall at Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama.

“Has [Bubba Wallace] apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX? That & Flag decision has caused lowest ratings EVER!” the president tweeted on Monday morning.
