President Trump and Los Angeles Lakers LeBron James are locked a public war of words over sports, race, the National Anthem and frankly, who has the bigger ___. In a CNN interview pursuant to his I PROMISE school LeBron doubled down on accusations that Trump uses race to divide the country. The President subsequently ripped The Kang and CNN’s Don Lemon who did the interview:
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!

Challenging LeBron’s intelligence is one thing, but doing it ahead of an important campaign rally in Ohio is downright brazen. The President is headed to Ohio to stump for Troy Balderson who is in a heated battle with Democrat Danny O’ Connor to represent the 12th Congressional District.
Will be going to Ohio tonight to campaign for Troy Balderson for the big Congressional Special Election on Tuesday. Early voting is on. Troy is strong on Crime, the Border & loves our Military, Vets & 2nd Amendment. His opponent is a puppet of Nancy Pelosi/high taxes.

It wasn’t a particularly smart move for a man deigning to call LeBron dumb. Just days after attacking Ohio’s hometown hero, Trump is set to travel to the state to campaign for Troy Balderson who is locked in a dead heat with Democrat Danny O’Connor to represent the 12th Congressional District. Will Ohio voters turn on Trump for insulting the intelligence of Akron’s favorite son? We shall soon find out.
