KD says he won't visit White House, hints other Warriors won't either

His right to express his political opinions. But unfortunately this move makes him look very petty and very small. An invitation to the White House is a symbolic goodwill gesture. Turning down an invitation because you disagree with the President's politics is pretty weak and poor manners. I would think the same of a conservative who turned down an invite from Obama or Clinton. I am a KD fan but he sure makes it difficult at times.

This is how I feel.
President Obama was JUST AS divisive as President Trump. Every bit.

However, if a politically conservative athlete refused to go to the White House and meet the President because the man was divisive, I would call that petty and immature.

It is, of course, his exclusive right not to go meet anyone he doesn't want to for any reason he sees fit. It's my right to have an opinion and yours to have an opinion about mine, etc. I mainly hope for consistency (intellectual honesty) and general decorum. (Even when others do not display such.)

That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. The only reason president Obama was considered divisive was because he was black. I seem to recall a football player that was kicked off the team at Texas because he called Obama an N word when he was elected. Obama never talked about how he likes to sexually assault women like Trump did.

Obama didn't put known racist in his administration like Trump did. Obama didn't collude with Russia like Trump did. Obama also wasn't as incompetent and as dumb as a box of rocks like Trump is. Hell, he's almost gotten rid of every person in his administration.

Really? It wasn't because he said,"...you lost so shut up and deal with it?" That man spent ZERO energy on bringing the country together and did everything in his power to pit blacks against whites. But you obviously think he hung the moon.

White people like yourself were mad that Obama was black and that's a fact. You sound real dumb saying that Obama pit blacks against whites. No, the whites did that all by themselves.

There you go calling me white again.....so typical of you to assume.
 
Don't matter, like I said You were mad because a black man got elected. I see that you didn't refute that!

I don't need to because as typical you just assumed. You have this fairytale world you live in where everyone is out to get you and are angry. I suggest you spend more time developing a skill and focusing on a more positive life outcome. There are evil people in the world and neither of us can change that. But that doesn't make an entire country racist and hateful. You've been brainwashed.

I'm not assuming anything it's obvious by the way that you stupidly try to make Obama and Trump the same person. Trump is a direct result of you and other white people not liking Obama because he is black.

Ok, I'll play one more time, you hate Trump simply because he's white.....its quite obvious.

Obummer could have been white, yellow, red, green or purple and his policies would STILL have been derided in the manner in which they are and have been. The fact that his policies SUCKED and are recognized as such is NOT due to his race.

He was the worst PotUS in my lifetime, and I was alive when the peanut farmer was in office. The ONLY good thing about Carter was in the interest on the certificates of deposit that served as my presumptive college fund.

Umm...no. If Obummer's policies were so great and the ONLY problem was that he was black, then the country would have had its first corrupt white female as the successor to the office. But the policies sucked, as did the candidate for the office. The voters spoke and the candidate that understood how electoral votes work won the election...
 
I really don't care one iota whether Durant visits the White House or not. Couldn't care less. Would feel the same way if he went.

Really glad he won an NBA championship though.
 
Inviting sports teams and athletes to the White House is a tradition intended to honor the athletes, not to bolster the President in any way. If they don't want to go, f-em. Doesn't hurt Trump in any way. I'll still vote for him if he runs again.

Of course you would still vote for an incompetent, mediocre, racist, man. And it really says something about you and the other racist idiots who voted for him in the first place.

Just another example that shows that if you're white and mediocre like Trump is you can be successful in America.
 
You all can keep playing dumb. But this board is a microcosm of what Racists White America looks and sounds like.
 
Obama is black, period. And I don't have to explain to the people who obviously didn't like Obama because he IS BLACK!

Don't you notice that I don't take you seriously enough to argue with you? You're either a troll or a deeply delusional person. Either way, it's not worth my time to haggle with your nonsense. I can do more productive and entertaining things with my time like drink German beer and watch paint dry.

Yet, you took time out of your boring, racist, life to respond to me. That makes me feel really special.

I'll sometimes respond just out of amusement as I would to a child. And for what it's worth, you were at least accurate in your description of Mobilhoma, so maybe there's a little hope for you.

Again? Now I really feel special that the boring, racist, responded to me.
 
:brickwall:Can't wait for football to start so I can get something different than the idiocy of identity politics today. Of course, then some idiot will suggest removal of DKR from the stadium.
 
Everyone take a tip from Deez and ignore the troll. The worst thing you can do is respond. Let him rant. Hopefully his name calling will earn him the perma ban.
