LeBron James has been blasting President Donald Trump a lot lately and it appears that President Trump has just about had enough of it. After James went on another verbal attack Friday night against the president, Trump finally blasted the arrogant basketball player.
From Biz Pac Review:
“Lebron James was just interviewed by the dumbest man on television, Don Lemon. He made Lebron look smart, which isn’t easy to do. I like Mike!” the president wrote, referring to NBA legend Michael Jordan, who’s made it a mission to keep his nose out of politics.
In an interview with Don Lemon on Monday, James had accused Trump of using sports to be divisive.
“What I’ve noticed over the past few months is he’s kinda used sports to kinda divide us, and that’s something that I can’t relate to,” James said, going on to describe how it was via sports that he got to “learn” about white people.
James’ argument was that calling out players who disrespect the national anthem and thus America is divisive. The president and his supporters feel differently. To them, NFL multimillionaires going around and essentially saying “America sucks” is what’s divisive.
This cartoon by A.F. Branco conveys that very point:
Maybe, James should just stick throwing a round ball through a hoop, right?
