Detroit Pistons head coach Stan Van Gundy blasted US President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday in a nearly six-minute rant.

Speaking to media before the Pistons' Wednesday night game against the Phoenix Suns, Van Gundy said he was stunned and "ashamed" of the US for electing Trump.

"I don’t think anybody can deny this guy is openly and brazenly racist and misogynistic and ethnic-centric," Van Gundy said. "We have just thrown a good part of our population under the bus, and I have problems with thinking that this is where we are as a country."

Well he must be one of those low information voters! Too dumb to do real research and find out the truth. Or he is a commie.

Never heard of him.

Then again, I couldn’t care less about so-called NBA basketball.

Stan Van Gundy, whoever the hell he is, can ESAD.

and “ashamed” of the US for electing Trump.

A person exercises his or her right to support a presidential candidate, in this case Donald Trump. That person then pays to see a basketball game and support his or her Pistons. This guy Van Gundy is “ashamed” of that person.

As if anyone needed another reason not to like or trust liberals. Usually when a person makes a public rant like that, they themselves are closeted racists and misogynists.

I actually met and spoke to Ron a couple of times. He’s an intelligent person who just happens to use his other “head” to make a living.

believe it or not, his mother used to serve under the OSS which was the precursor to the CIA, I kid you not. He showed me a picture of his parents in front of the langley building back in the 50’s or 60’s. Nice trivia if it serves you ;)

I like sports. That’s why I don’t watch the NBA.

I read where Ron had a master’s but I didn’t know about the mother. Very neat bit of trivia.

If he’s still going, he must have the constitution of an ox.

How about having bloodthirsty Clintons who blow up and burn poor people in the Middle East, and the displaced people come into our countries and murder us in return.

I’m not aware of DJT being a racist...quite the opposite. Will someone please end my ignorance? What, where, when, and who?

It’s true about the Master’s. And no, it’s not University of Phoenix LOL. You know when you talk to someone and they can coherently respond in articulate sentences? Ron is one of the few I know of. When I was an intern on the Price is Right, he took the Jeopardy test in the next studio with 2 other celebs, and he aced it. CBS just nixed the idea due to the “morals” code but I was there when it happened..

He’s a white male conservative and in their eyes that is enough.

Maybe coach needs to start a safe circle where he and his players can work through their feelings due to the unbearable amount of stress caused to him by Trump’s election.
Coach “Snowflake” Van Gundy needs to create a safe place to express opinions, and hopefully help cope with the damage inflicted upon their fragile psyches.

My family is enjoying a bottle of Korbel champaigne and celebrating Trump singlehandedly, with help from the American people, defeating Uniparty and the MSM.

Gundy, quote us three documented examples of Trump’s racism. Well? We’re waiting...
