LeBron James Blasts Space Jam 2 Villain Donald Trump On Twitter Over NFL Comments
Space Jam 2 star LeBron James took to Twitter today to blast President Donald Trump following Trump's ongoing bizarre attack on protesting NFL Players.
Calling the actions of Colin Kaepernick, in taking a knee in protest during the National Anthem to support Black Lives Matter, "a total disrespect of everything we stand for," Trump attacked Kaepernick and any other players who protest during football games.
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'get that son of a bitch off the field right now, he's fired?'" Trump said at a recent campaign rally, after tweeting several times about Kaepernick in the past.
But it was a tweet directed at James's fellow basketball star Stephen Curry that finally prompted King James to step in. After Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry spurned an invitation to visit Trump at the Oval Office, Trump tried to save face by pretending he was disinviting Curry:
James promptly burned Trump:
And other basketball stars chimed in as well:
Is it time to pull ambassador Dennis Rodman back from the North Korea situation to focus on these problems at home?

Hmm.
