The Toronto Maple Leafs hired Dusty Imoo to be goaltending coach for the Marlies. Still, they fired him only two days later when the club found out he had “liked” a long list of Trump MAGA tweets, especially tweets posted during the January 6th Capitol riot.
Imoo, 51, appeared to support many of the tweets flying around Twitter that fateful day, some that accused Vice President Mike Pence of being a traitor, others that reacted in glee at the size of the crowd at Trump’s rally that day.
