Who the hell did Trump inflict on the Impressionable Youth of Today?
Mariano Rivera: retired baseball pitcher
Misty May-Treanor: beach volleyball pro
Herschel Walker: retired football player
Brenda Larsen Becker: the only one I could find is an executive at Boston Scientific, which makes medical implants...including, interestingly enough, penile implants.
Bill Belichick: coach of the New England Patriots
Johnny Damon: retired major league baseball outfielder
Trevor Drinkwater: This is a strange one. IMDB says he's a movie producer. OpenSecrets says he donated $500 to the National
Republican Congressional Committee in 2006, and $1000 to Hillary Clinton in 2016. I wonder if Trump knows this.
Lou Ferrigno: retired world champion bodybuilder, actor, Celebrity Apprentice contestant
Robert Goldman: Doctor. CV looks padded as hell. Most of his publication list is anti-aging medicine.
Nan Hayworth: optometrist who was a Republican congresswoman
Matthew Hesse: runs Corr-Jensen, a company that makes dietary supplements for athletes
Ashlee Lundvall: hunts game animals from her wheelchair
Jacob Olson: This guy has an interesting story.

Jake Olson lost both his eyes to a rare retinal cancer. He decided to learn to play football. There's only one position a blind man can play, long snapper (the guy who throws the football to the kicker for punts, field goals and extra-point attempts), and Jake learned the position well enough to walk onto the USC football team. In 2017, he snapped in two actual games: a 49-31 win against Western Michigan (the two coaches worked it out to let him make a snap), and a 38-10 blowout over Oregon State where the coach decided to send him in. Jake is a really good kid and Trump isn't fit to shine his cleats.
Mehmet Oz: Needs no introduction.
Natalie Gulbis Rodarmel: professional golfer
Shauna L Rohbock: Olympic bobsledder
Kyle Frederick Snyder: Retired world-class freestyle amateur wrestler. Has won every wrestling competition there is. Youngest wrestler to win the World, NCAA and Olympic championships in the same year.
Stephen Soloway: He is a rheumatologist whose bio mentions that he once (and may still) owned a copy of every baseball card Topps ever printed - at the same time.
Julie Teer: Chief Development and Public Affairs Officer, Boys and Girls Clubs of America. Her Facebook page mentions she worked for Romney's 2008 presidential campaign. Reminds me a little of Ivanka.
Chris Tisi: CEO of Slim-Fast, Inc. (Yes, THAT Slim-Fast.) Lives in West Palm Beach.
Robert Charles Wilkins: This one's slightly interesting: Robert Charles Wilkins is an active attorney in the Orlando area. He specializes in estate and trust law.
Samuel James Worthington Jr.: Owns the Newtown Athletic Club, Newtown, PA. https://newtownathletic.com
This is a VERY impressive facility
Linda Yaccarino: Chairperson of Advertising Sales and Client Relationships for NBC Universal.
To call this the weirdest thing I've ever seen is understating the magnitude of the problem. The mission of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition is to get kids motivated to play sports and work out. This would suggest picking two dozen Olympians and pro athletes who are young enough to be relatable to little kids. Somehow, I don't think a group of rich people and retired jocks is going to have that effect.
