    Screw those a-holes. If they don't want to visit the White House then they shouldn't be welcome there. Why don't they take a knee during the national anthem? They saw what happened to the NFL when they did. C'mon NBA take a stand, are you all a bunch of cowards? The NBA should suffer the same as the NFL.

    It says something about how divisive Trump is as a president. Your "screw them" attitude is part of the problem. It doesn't do anything towards making the country less divided.

    No American is under any obligation to accept an invitation from the White House. We do not live in a monarchy where such a denial would be viewed as treason. Yet.

    You leftos need to understand something about division: Its you who are divided from us.

    Leftists run around with nothing but hate.

    Hate for Whites, hate for males, hate for Christians, hate for guns, hate for cops, hate for military, hate for law & order, hate for jobs, hate for business, hate for capitalism, hate for the wealthy, hate for patriotism, hate for nationalism, hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate.

    Look at your politicians, look at your media, look at your social media, look at your activist groups, look at your entertainment industry, look at your talking heads, look at your late night hosts.

    All they do every single day, EVERY SINGLE DAY, is spew hate.

    Trump has done some great things for the country, things that are documented and indisputable, and yet you guys cannot push the pause button on hate for a single moment and just be happen that something good happened.

    Its you leftist that have been divided from the whole of America.

    We would like you to snap out of this delusion and join us ...you would like us to fk off and die because we're "too stupid to be woke".

    That right there is the true telling of the matter of division.

    Some do, most don't. You're expressing hatred for anyone (you see as) politically left though. How are you not part of the problem?

    It's not treason, it's just disrespectful. And that disrespect goes two ways, so they shouldn't be upset if the President views them in a negative light.

    LOL, now righties can add the NBA to their "verboten" list. If they keep alienating sports at that rate, they'll have only skeet shooting to watch in a couple of months.

    I'm no "lefto". I'm a fiscal conservative who recognises that Trump isn't.
    I also recognise that he is a con-man. That means I'm perceptive - not left.
    I don't hate any off the things you say. I think "nationalism" can be corrupted, but I don't hate any of those things.

    Trump has done some good things, and some of the good trends that started under Obama have continued (which isn't the same thing as Trump doing them). But he has also done some awful things, and I think he is intellectually, ethically and temperamentally unfit for the presidency. Again, that doesn't make me a "leftist".

    There is a lot of hate in your post that I have quoted. I challenge you to find any of my posts, ever, that demonstrate even a fraction of the hate that you have just written. You won't find it.

    Your hate is part of the problem of divisiveness. You put people in a group of "leftos". You do nothing to seek rapprochement with that group you hate.

    yeah umm trump invited them they gave him the proverbial finger. The onus of failure is squarely on lefties shoulders. If you disagree with the President...you should go and speak with him if you get the chance or else you prove your whole argument as false. Theres no higher person to make your argument to than the POTUS.

    I don't think the NBA players are the cowards. I applaud these men, who refuse to meet with a man who thinks everyone in America is here to serve him.

    They're mostly black. Trump loves white nationalists. What do you honestly expect?

    Nobody is going to stand up and skin and grin with a man who shows them nothing but disrespect.

    The Golden State Warriors didn't go last year, I can't really see why they'd go this year (if they win) with President Snow still in the White House.... ;)

    Race baiting idiots. "Concerned: about black lives, but only if they can "blame whitey" for it.

    What disrespect has the President shown to the Cavs of Warriors? The only disrespect being shown is not TOWARDS THEM, it is BY THEM.

    If they are "so concerned" over black lives being taken, maybe they should "REFUSE TO GO" to Chicago, Baltimore, St.Louis, New Orleans Detroit, etc.

    Of course, those THOUSANDS of blacks murdered there can't be blamed on white people or the police, so they, naturally, are of "no concern" to the race baiting hypocrites.

    You come across very young. Apologies if I am wrong.

    Winning our current political version of American Idol/Survivor does not automatically gain you respect. Has to be earned. I am still waiting for him to earn it.

    I would refuse him entry into my home!
