NBA Twitter Reacts To Donald Trump’s LeBron James Tweet
Earlier this week, LeBron James was interviewed by CNN’s Don Lemon, to talk about the new school for at-risk children, he built in Akron, Ohio. During the interview, James was asked about Donald Trump and said that he believed the president was using sports as a tool to divide the country even further apart.
Then, last night, Trump reacted to the interview on Twitter, taking a shot at both Don Lemon and LeBron James.
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!

As always, this led to the ‘Twitterverse’ and NBA Twitter reacting to Donald Trump’s statement, with almost everyone jumping on LeBron’s side.
So let me get this straight: Flint, MI has dirty water still, but you worried about an interview about a man doing good for education and generations of kids in his hometown? Shut your damn mouth! Stop using them twitter fingers and get stuff done for our country with that pen. https://t.co/sEkX3OKaJM

Maybe one day, LeBron’s new school can match the impressive accolades of decorated Trump University. https://t.co/5N0OSdo9xX

Re: that Trump tweet. That angers me beyond belief. I don’t want my future kids growing up in a world where two Black men, accomplished in their field, are called dumb because they disagree with your views. LeBron should be commended this week for his actions, not insulted.

So Trump finally went at LeBron, huh? Shocked it took this long. Not shocked it happened during a week where LeBron literally opened a school for at-risk kids.
