The 2019 Little League world champions went back home to Louisiana in style after they accepted a last-minute invitation Friday to fly aboard Air Force with President Trump.
The Eastbank All-Stars were visiting Washington, D.C., following their 8-0 victory over Curacao in August to clinch the baseball title, Politico reported. The team took a tour of the Capitol in a visit hosted by Republican Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana, who serves as the House minority whip.
Trump also welcomed North Carolina's Rowan County All-Stars, the 2019 Little League Softball World Series Champions.

That’s one of the coolest things a President could ever do.
Brave man. I coached kids for years and all those little boys in one place can wreak havoc in minutes. Wonder if he had to yell at any of them.
Have said from the beginning....despite his “all business” he has the character of a “good and kind father”.
I’m sure they were mesmerized by the interior of the plane. Nothing like their school bus. :-)
Any treasonists try to prevent them?
What an amazing experience for these boys!
Waiting for the race baiters in 3-2-1....
No one had to yell at them, they were perfect gentlemen under the stern eyes of the Marine detail. {;^)

actually they recalled Sarah Sanders to give them the “mom eyebrow” she used on the white house press children.
Of course, the little leaguers were probably more mature.
Luckily my son was not on that team, otherwise some of the Trump ladies would had their hearts broken.

I am envious! This is an event I am sure they will never forget. Flying on AF1 with the President has to be one of the greatest thing that can happen to any child not a part of the DC establishment or a hanger on.
What an awesome story.
Racist AND sexist! A twofer! Probably no alphabet people as well.
Waiting for CNN and Jim Acosta to do a story on Trump kidnapping a group of minors.
Just wow. I hope they enjoyed it!
(Oh and while I love these amazing youth athletes, I feel that our amazing teen gymnasts who do the best at our nationals should also get this kind of press. No other athlete of any sport can do what those kids can do (especially the boys with 6 extremely difficult events). )
Those kids will remember that for the rest of their lives.
So The Donald does Minnesota on Thursday night and Louisiana on Friday night but in-between he manages to work a full day in DC.
