Former Major League Baseball star and vocal Trump supporter Aubrey Huff was called out on Twitter, Tuesday, for fantasizing about kidnapping Iranian women in an upcoming war.
In response to another user who wrote, “We should invade Iran and take their bitches. Persian girls are hot af without the headgear and you know they know how to act right,” Huff replied, “Let’s get a flight over and kidnap about 10 each.”
“We can bring them back here as they fan us and feed us grapes, amongst other things,” he continued, with a devil emoji, seemingly fantasizing about raping the women.

Baseball fans and other social media users reacted with disgust at Huff – a 13-year Major Leaguer who won two world titles with the San Francisco Giants — and questioned why Twitter had yet to take action against his account.
Just out here on Twitter, talking about kidnapping women and forcing them into sex slavery, having a normal one. https://t.co/DUkQL01q1Z

That’s about your only shot at a woman.

This guy goes from bragging about practicing shooting socialists to the idea of kidnapping and raping Iranian women.
But he played baseball good so @Twitter has gotta keep him on the platform, apparently. https://t.co/8V1ov3WNIN

Huff, who retired from baseball in 2014, is a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, with a #Trump2020 hashtag in his Twitter bio.
Huff was previously at the center of controversy in November, after he posted on Twitter that he was training his children how to use firearms in the event that Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-VT) beat President Trump in the 2020 presidential election.
Getting my boys trained up on how to use a gun in the unlikely event @BernieSanders beats @realDonaldTrump in 2020. In which case knowing how to effectively use a gun under socialism will be a must. By the way most the head shots were theirs. @NRA @WatchChad #2ndAmendment pic.twitter.com/6xUsS7ciX3
