Basketball Superstar Lebron James Lashes Trump For Dividing America by olamariamjonez(m): 10:00pm On Jul 31, 2018
LeBron James, the basketball superstar called out President Donald Trump on Monday night for escalating racial tensions.

“He’s kinda used sports to kinda divide us,” James told CNN’s Don Lemon. “And that’s something that I can’t relate to because I know that sport was the first time I was around someone white.”

Trump has repeatedly slammed professional athletes, some for refusing to visit the White House as has been customary after championships, and others for kneeling during the national anthem to protest police brutality and racial injustice.

“Sports has never been something that divides people,” said James. “It’s always been something that brings someone together.”
James also said that while racism has always been around, Trump has enabled some of the racists.

“The president in charge now has given people, they don’t care now ― they throw it in your face now,” he said.

FTC for the second time today....

No matter what people say, Trump remains one of the best presidents America has ever had. Fearless, bold, decisive, intelligent and a progressive.

We have more than enough to cope with and worry about in Nigeria. Let us leave Americans to their own problems. I'm very sure they have all the materials and intelligence to fix their own society.

Donald Trump is a rascist, misogynist, corrupt no good dumb man. His professor in college said he has not seen a more dumb student in his life paraphrased by me.
It was racism that led to his winning through electoral college since only 305 people elect American President against the will of overwhelming majority.
Now racism is on all time high. White people are calling cops on black people for nothing and what does Trump do absolute nothing.
People here supporting him for religious reason are all hypocrites. A man that commits almost all the 7 sins is who you are championg over better tolerant people.
A liar, we used to hear there was no collusion with Russia now he and Rudy his attorney are now saying there was collusion it is not a crime.
The worst rascist President ever.
Thanks for speaking out King James and your new school open to everyone at no cost is very commendable.
