Good for DK!
I guess Don K. needed time to prepare for the backlash he knows will be coming.
This seals the deal!
Don King has always been republican, hasn’t he???
Glad to see he’s smarter than the GOPe elitists....
Mike Tyson. Don King. Self-made African Americans who make their homes in Vegas
No plantation African Americans in Vegas. Those are for the coasts and the Acela Corridor.
I guess Don King must be a racist then. /sarc
Don King and Donald Trump use the same hair stylist!
He definitely is a character...He is well liked...I remember when I first saw him on TV, I thought he’d stuck his finger in an electric socket the way his hair stood up...
Thank you Don.
But he wants Trump to run with Stalinist Sanders.
Gotta hand it to Don. He has probably known Donald Trump longer than anyone else in the celebrity and business realm.
Celebrity Deathmatch: Donald Trump v. Don King
Go to the 8 minute mark.
Don King? Classify that under: I thought he died years ago.
Don King has always endorsed Republicans. No news there.
Frankly, although endorsements like his are meaningless, they always make me uncomfortable (hint: Google Don King’s controversial history with his boxers. I only know what I’ve read, and I don’t think you’ll find a one who’ll have a nice thing to say. Cus D’Amato told Mike Tyson: “Stay away from Don King!” But Cus died while Mike was still a teenager. After Tyson became champ, and another close associate (Jacobs) died unexpectedly, King got his ear. His old team was tough on Tyson, wanting him to keep training hard. King told him, as I recall, things to the effect of “You’re THE CHAMP! You can do what you want!” The charmer won. Tyson fired his old team and joined team King. Started partying, slipping - ran into Buster Douglas’s right hand, then went up the river convicted for a crime he may or may not have committed. Went broke (that seems to be the common thread with King’s boxers). King’s sitting pretty. Its just that there is a very bad stink around his story. Again, since his endorsements don’t matter, it doesn’t bother me much that he always endorse’s Republicans. His personal story does bother me, though).
“Don King? Classify that under: I thought he died years ago.”

the news is in context with the phoney baloney racist meme the MSM, GOPe and Clintonoid sharks are obsessively playing on Mr T; Happy Birthday on Tues. (I believe) Mr T!
What a racist!!!!!!/ sarc
