I see a trend here - dumb jocks thinking their opinions on things actually mean something.

Trump gets it Carmelo. He knows dumbasses like you and LeBron are world class cretins.

Trump gets it, it’s why he is what he is. You bounce a ball.

what minorities feel like during this presidency

Based on what? Overblown hyperbole from a callous leftist media bent on cynical manipulation by means of phony allegations?

“We have been special our entire lives, we are entitled. “

Is that what he wanted to say?

I really don’t care what Carmelo Anthony thinks about Trump or anything else - he’s just some random person as far as his views about anything. But as a basketball player, Anthony is really going to be something teamed up with Paul George and Russell Westbrook. The Western Conference is going to be insane this year.

Liberals - living in an alternate reality, angry that common folks don’t subscribe to their nonsense. Usually, the next thing is for them to scream their intellectual and/or moral superiority.

No truth, no reality can cure them. It’s quite bizarre to witness in real-time.

True. I see a Warriors/Thunder Western Conference Finals.

The Spurs are another dangerous team.

No Carmelo, you don’t get it. We, the paying fans, are your boss and when you play political games on company time, you risk the possibility of angering your bosses.

Why? Because not all of your “bosses” want to hear your opinions on current issues ON COMPANY TIME. We come to see you play a game and nothing else.

I’m as concerned about what you “feel like” now, as you were about me, when your god was President.

And what exactly is Trump doing to minorities?

Barry the savior presided over blacks killing other blacks by the bushel and encouraged racial division the likes of which we hadn’t seen in 2 generations.

I don’t know who Anthony Carmelo is but I get that “hands up, don’t shoot” didn’t happen and that BLM is a movement based on lies.
