Trump Blasts N.F.L. Players, Then Takes Aim at N.B.A. Champion Stephen Curry

President Trump took aim at two of the world’s most powerful sports leagues and some of their most popular athletes, directly inserting himself into an already fiery debate about race, social justice and the role athletes play in highlighting those issues.

In urging N.F.L. owners to fire players who do not stand for the national anthem, and telling the N.B.A. champion Golden State Warriors they are not welcome at the White House, the president has driven a divide between the players, many of whom are black and opposed to the president’s views on race, and the team owners, who are almost all white and, in the N.F.L., largely conservative.

Mr. Trump’s comments, made at a campaign rally on Friday and on social media on Saturday, drew a swift and unusually strong rebuke from the N.F.L., which has done more than most leagues in wrapping itself in the American flag, as well as the players’ union. Scores of football and basketball players, including LeBron James, among the best-known athletes in the country, took to social media to denounce the president.

“Going to White House was a great honor until you showed up!” Mr. James wrote on Twitter, referring to the president as “U bum.”

LeBron James for president.

But seriously, call me naive but I somehow think this latest little tantrum may just end up being a bridge too far.

For example I can imagine a one-game strike by NFL players toppling this imbecile.
