Trump Claims ‘Rants’ Made By NBA Star Calling For Police Accountability Are ‘Racist’ | Talking Points Memo

Former President Donald Trump who repeatedly turned racist dog-whistles into bullhorns and feasted on division as a platform for his failed reelection bid last year, suggested that a call for “accountability” by an NBA star in the recent police shooting of an Ohio teen was both “racist” and “divisive.”

The best thing msm and other news sites like this one could do is simply ignore Rump. There are already 3 cable stations promoting his idiocy. Why amplify unimportant rants and predictable commentary?

Oh, yea, $$$$$$$

He’s like one of those peevish people who always attend township meetings to complain about trivial stuff and won’t take no for an answer when the officials say they’ve looked at their options and there isn’t anything they can do about it.

Doxxing a cop within a couple days of a very confusing shooting, where a lot of facts are still unknown and/or in dispute, seems unwise. LeBron should maybe let his opinions simmer and distill a bit before publishing them.
