But for skateboarding legend Henry Sanchez, an outspoken MAGA supporter, it didn’t change anything.
Even with the potential hit to the industry he loves, he still stands with Trump.
Sanchez said, "And he's still better than the radical leftist." His words left no room for guessing where he stands, showing that loyalty to Trump comes before concern about tariffs for him.
He also shared his thoughts on what he sees as double standards from liberals. He said, "Liberals didn’t protest the MRNA covid vaccine because their precious media didn’t tell them to, just like they didn’t protest Obama’s deportations that are similar to Trump in numbers." Sanchez’s point was that outrage often depends on what the media is showing and what fits the left’s narrative, not on the facts themselves.

Even with the tariff news potentially affecting skate brands and board prices, Sanchez isn’t backing down.
It seems supporting Trump outweighs the economic impact on the skate world. Fans and critics are watching closely, but Sanchez isn’t switching sides and is still a Trump supporter.
Whether you agree or not, Sanchez keeps it real. He is speaking his mind and staying loyal to his beliefs even when the stakes for the skate industry are high.
