Sharks’ Couture says he was “sucker punched” after expressing support for GOP

San Jose Sharks captain Logan Couture tweeted Wednesday morning that he was punched in the face the night before after he publicly expressed support for the Republican Party and mentioned President Donald Trump.

Couture tweeted that was in Toronto on Tuesday night and “talked about voting for the Republican Party, and I mentioned Donald Trump by name. I was sucker punched. Is this really what we are coming to? If you vote you are a villain? Man this world is so wrong.”

Couture, 31, later tweeted he was punched after he said his dad was a former police officer and that he would vote Republican this fall if he was eligible.
