Lest we forget, President Obama readily continued and follow through the invite of Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins despite the fact their goalie and de facto captain ( notwithstanding Chara) who is a first-rate tea partier, not to mention a first-rate a******, publicly refused the invitation because of socialism, Etc.
Trump of course does not have 1/10 of the class for patience for people who dare criticize him.
The Bruins' goalie, Tim Thomas, was wrong for this. Obama was our President at the time, and an invitation to the White House is an honor. Acknowledging a Presidential invitation as an honor is not, and has never been (at least until recently) an act viewed as co-signing policies one disagrees with.
This, however, was one player. The Warriors have numerous players on board with this. And numerous players are putting pressure on others to boycott Trump; Thomas, in error that he was, acted on his own and wasn't trying to be part of some sort of movement.
Obama had class. Trump only knows one mode: Combative. I'm waiting for him to grow in office, but he always regresses right when I think growth is happening. And, yes, this is getting to be an issue with me.
Seriously, it's taken you till now to realise that Trump is incapable of change?
