“Again, they prove they’re the best at taking an average car and maximizing their day and turning it into wins like this.”

Mr. President, your premise is false.
1) It wasn't a "hoax." Everyone involved truly believed it was threat directed at Wallace. And Wallace didn't report it; he was informed about it.
2) There hasn't been any noticeable impact on the ratings, which are not the lowest ever.

I suppose if Brandon Jones wrecks Ty Gibbs at Phoenix next week, Jones will get in trouble because it's a non-playoff driver manipulating the Championship 4. But if NASCAR doesn't penalize Gibbs, then it should let Jones do whatever he feels is necessary next week.
