Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul said Saturday President Trump isnt man enough to call athletes a son of a b---- to their faces after Trump used the term to describe athletes who kneel during the national anthem.
With everything that's going on in our country, why are YOU focused on who's kneeling and visiting the White House??? #StayInYoLane, Paul tweeted. And I doubt he's man enough to call any of those players a son of a bitch to their face

Paul, who also serves as the president of the NBA Players Association, joined a host of other athletes calling out Trump for his attacks on athletes. Paul also called the president out for saying Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry is no longer invited to visit the White House following their championship win.
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b---- off the field right now,'" Trump said Friday, adding, "'He is fired.'"

Two Scoops Donnie is SO patriotic, he is destroying this country before our eyes. Meanwhile the gop is furiously at work putting through a healthcare bill to kill as many people as possible.

He bellows and lies and tells them what they want to hear, puts on a display like a strutting rutting animal, gives his hearers permission to own their darkest impulses, and lies some more. "That Wall is under construction right now, believe me!" Only it's not and the whole world knows it, except these morons. He incites to violence and they cheer.
He is dangerous, and so is his "base."

(17,622 posts)..the status he used to have hanging with movie stars, athletes and musicians. Being invited to all the Hollywood soirees, the awards banquets and the dinners!!! He USED to be a bigger than life persona...an enigma....a success everyone envied.
Now, however because of his narcissist greed, the entire world KNOWS hes a grifter and a fraud and the only people who want to hang out with him are the swamp water bottom dwellers he calls 'supporters''..in reality they are his only friends.....the toothless, unwashed under-informed.....and the wannabes who are standing in line ready to take his place as bully in chief once he tumbles off his pedestal. They aren't there to support him.... they are there to push him aside and become the countries top Deplorable. Hes always having to watch his back. He wanted to be king and THATS his world now. Sad for him, devastating for us.

It's really amusing that these idiot Nazis regard themselves as a "superior race," or it would be amusing were it not so tragic.

(6,917 posts)Trump's self-worth is measured by how much he puts down others. His faithful followers believe Trump is strong because Trump says so. The problem is, Trump has never been challenged--until now.
Reporters don't believe the bullshit, they've see it before. Celebrities, too. Athletes, too. They are surrounded by wannabes bragging about their accomplishments.
Trump's accomplishments? BUSINESS-multiple bankruptcies, no American bank will lend him money. ENTERTAINMENT-multiple failed shows, reality-TV host. SPORTS- USFL failed, some say, because of him. NFL passed him up for owner
That is what bothers Trump, he knows the truth about the gap between his PR image and the real man. And that's gotta hurt.
