Trump Hammers the NFL
In a skewering Tweet, President Trump hammered the NFL over its ratings and the refusal of the league to take action against players kneeling during the national anthem.

Lebron James is the GOAT
Proof that Lebron James is the GOAT? Look no further than last night’s personal-postseason-best 51 points in 48 minutes.
