The President of the United States continues to beat the best league in the world.
Against the backdrop of the black struggle in the US, which intensified last week following the NBA players' protest, Donald Trump is once again criticizing the ratings data in the bubble in Orlando.
The US president, who did not really hide his dissatisfaction with the decision of the players, who as I recall chose less than a week ago to suspend the playoffs for three days, chose to tweet a little while ago on Twitter his true opinion of the NBA.
"People are just tired of watching a political league like the NBA," Trump explained. "Basketball ratings have dropped significantly, and it doesn't look like it will come back anytime soon. To stand proudly for the nation and for the American flag. "
People are tired of watching the highly political @NBA.
Basketball ratings are WAY down, and they will not be coming back.
I hope football and baseball are watching and learning because the same thing will be happening to them.
Stand tall for our Country and our Flag !!!

As you know, the front between US President Donald Trump and the most popular sports stars in the US is not something particularly new.
Exactly 3 years ago, at the end of the 2017 season, Trump tweeted against Steph Kerry, and Golden State, who chose to boycott the traditional meeting with the president after winning the championship.
"A visit to the White House is considered a great honor for a champion team. Stephen Kerry is hesitant, so the invitation is denied," he tweeted in the same context.
