    Trump just declined going to visit Britain because the British people don't like him. I doubt that he's even gonna invite the Warriors given the very public criticism that Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry have expressed against Trump. Trump is thin-skinned.

    They missed a big chance to pull a total Trump on Trump.

    "We are taking in various views and we will have an announcement about a possible White House visit very soon. #MAGA!"

    Then float various scenarios via friends on Fox and Friends and see how all of those play. Then do the least popular, most non-sensical thing they can, at the last minute.

    "We have decided to cut off all of our left arms and to hit one another with the detached arms, then yell insults at the Cavaliers, saying we will beat them one-handed next year just 'like this'. Thank you for your support. #MAGA!"

    Liberals like margaret sanger stood behind and supported over 22 million aborted black kids.

    I voted for obama and as a black man he did nothing for our people. He was the president for women and homosexuals

    If I understand your question correctly, yes would be my answer.

    LOL, ok you have good points. I take it back, yes, Trump will care. But will he do anything differently because the Warriors didn't visit? That was really the point I was trying to make. It is a protest that won't change anything.

    i doubt trump cares about peach baskets either way.
    that's pretty strong unity. Has there ever been a team that unanimously decided not to attend?
    I think the opposite would have a stronger message.

    Here is one. He supported a false statistic when running his campaign that black people are responsible for 83% of white homicide, when in reality it is around 15%. All of the below statistics are way off.

    Embarrassing...

    That may be embarrassing but it is a stretch to call it racist.

    The whole message behind that tweet is focused on race. It makes a generalization based on race, and that generalization is a mischaracterization of individuals of that race and the race at large. Not sure how it couldn't be more racist.


    Actually no, we could make it more racist. Maybe if in the image of the black guy with his off hand he was holding a watermelon, grape soda, and some cocaine it could be seen as more racist.

    He didnt really say a
    He didnt really say anything though except retweeting the pic. If that is the best example of his racism towards blacks then I would pump the breaks a bit.

    "Showing or feeling discrimination or prejudice against people of other races, or believing that a particular race is superior to another." Oxford

    He is not showing prejudice towards black folks in that tweet? He is not championing the "low" crime rates of white people?

    Saying that they kill white people 83 percent of the time, when really it is 15 percent?

    How is that not prejudiced? I don't understand.
