NEW YORK, Dec. 11 (UPI) -- NBA on TNT has a crew of large former players with even bigger personalities.

So it was no surprise Thursday, when Charles Barkley went off script to comment on presidential candidate Donald Trump and his supporters.

"He started out by insulting Hispanics...now to lump all the Muslims together, that's even more insulting," Barkley said. "This is the United States of America, this is the greatest place in the world. Do we have issues? Of course we have issues. But to try to divide and conquer, which is what the Republicans always try to do, is just sad."

"Then you have these losers who love that, because they're afraid to look in the mirror and see why their life sucks. So they have to blame other people. Your life sucks because of you, not because of Hispanics."(continued)

Yes, I’ve seen him up close - he’s smaller in real life.

A dose of projection, again.

Kate Steinle's life was going just fine until she was murdered for no reason while walking with her father by oft-deported illegal felon Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez.

Ask her family who made their lives suck.

Who listens to that freak? First I heard of him was in the Olympics where he was running his mouth. Couldn’t stand him then and can’t stand him now. The drunk fool is all God bless gay marriage and prostitutes.

Obama is the most successful person to ever divide and conquer a country.

He looked like a scrunched-over 6'1" to me, and his NBA muscle is long-gone. I'm sure he was around 6'4" in his playing days.

"This is the United States of America"

What does that even mean? Maybe Chuck should look at the purpose on why this is "the United States of America" instead of a vacant banality.
