Didn’t realize my old, racist uncle was the cubs owner.

An ultra-rich White guy is a racist? I’m shocked.

This was the guy back in the day got Mr. Pibb stains on my Grand Dragon robe I let him borrow... a very rude Cub thing to do.

His net worth is only chump change at $2.1 billion. But that still buys a lot of hate.

I do not think he cares what anyone thinks. He can afford it.

I really like Tom Ricketts' response. Didn't beat around the bush and just straight up condemned his father's opinions.

On the flip side, Joe Ricketts is pretty clearly racist, hateful guy. I can only assume he's going senile if someone who was once in charge of a massive corporation like Ameritrade is now falling for edited conspiracy theory youtube videos and made up statistics about the ideal percentage of muslims.
