Throughout history, we’ve witnessed some iconic rivalries develop in the NBA. Los Angeles Lakers vs. Boston Celtics, Bill Russell vs. Magic Johnson, and more recently... LeBron James vs. Donald Trump.
The former President of the United States has constantly taken shots at James, who has never hesitated to let everybody know just how much he despises Trump either. And this back-and-forth has gone even after he left office.
But, after several weeks of ostracism and secrecy, the businessman and former politician spoke in front of a crowd again, so it wasn’t surprising to see him take a swipe of LeBron James once again.

“If I were a coach, I’ll tell you, I wouldn’t be talking to too many women as we know women. I’d be getting some of these people that, ‘they’re women,’” Trump told the crowd.“Somebody said that if LeBron James ever decided to get the operation, how would he be on the court?”
“Did you see the basketball ratings, which were terrible? But they went up after his team was defeated,” Trump added.
Trump has constantly made remarks against the NBA, its ratings, and mainly LeBron James. James has always been a polarizing figure on the court, but Trump has now turned plenty of people against him off the court as well.
Even a bar in Ohio decided to stop airing Lakers games because of LeBron James. And while some people ridiculized that decision, others claim that the bar had never been busier and most successful.
At the end of the day, everybody’s entitled to his own opinion on these matters. But maybe stating that trans women are better at sports than women isn’t exactly the message you’d want to hear from the former leader of the Free World.
