I would guess Lebron and other minorities would disagree with you. Many were offended by his rhetoric. You may not think they have a right to feel that way, but it doesn't change how they feel.

I'm also guessing Lebron's issues with Trump didn't exist until Donald ran for President so your argument that he should've been avoiding his properties long ago is also dubious at best.

Dubious? I'm going to suggest the whole case of the personal destruction of Donald Trump is not only dubious at best, it's very Clintonesque

As for the boycotts, they didn't start when he announced his candidacy, they didn't start during primary season, they didn't start after he won the nomination and they didn't start during the heated campaign season.

The boycotts started after he won the presidency





PS: LaBitch blamed the anger that followed "the decision" on racism, he thinks using the word "posse" is a racist attack, so I concur, I can't speak to the issues he has going on in his head

The NBA season started two weeks prior to the election.

As I said earlier, whether or not you find the argument that Trump's rhetoric was racist to be dubious is irrelevant. What's relevant is that Lebron believes it was and is choosing to stay elsewhere. Just as you believe Kellogg's should be boycotted for it's decision to pull advertising from Breitbart. I may disagree with you on Kellogg's decision is an offense to conservatives, just as you disagree with Lebron about Trump's rhetoric, but my opinion is irrelevant. You and Lebron are in the same boat here. The difference is I doubt he'd call you wilbitch.

I'm not taking away LaBitch's right to do anything. Our disagreement is what event caused his "boycott".

I don't believe LaBitch or Mr Cubano boycott anything if Trump lost, they're crying sore loser liberals and they have a lot of company

Maybe, but I doubt it. On the other hand, I'm fairly certain Lebron doesn't boycott his hotels if he doesn't think Trump used racist rhetoric. Lebron isn't alone, there are quite a few white nationalists, such as Mr. David Duke, that are pretty excited about Mr. Trump's victory. I doubt they'd be so excited if they didn't think Trump shares at least some of their values.

Let me say this before some Trumper comes in here accusing me of saying Trump is a racist, I'm not saying that at all.

Why would you boycott his hotels when he is the celeb apprentice? You don't care what he said then, his opinions on anything aren't relevant.

Now he is prez, if you disagree with him then don't stay at the trump hotel. Who cares?

I can see why the media reports stuff like this, it works.

won't stay in a hotel because the presidents name is branded on it? That's like saying you won't fly into Obama Airport
