Why do people continue giving this bucket of vomit a national platform to spew his shit?

We have to be talking about Trump I assume with the description. I agree, he is a bucket of shit but he won so we have to live with it for a while.

He's good entertainment, but his son can't shoot the basketball.

Nope. I didn't watch the conversation. I am just sick and tired of every network and internet news site giving this idiot a platform to spew his halitosis. I just figured it would turn into a political thing so i put it here.

You know....you don't have to pay attention. You can change the channel (or simply not turn the TV on)...not click on an article on the interwebs about him (or simply not go on the internets). You can be in complete control of this situation.

The reason we've heard about this guy as much as we have is because President 10 year old facilitated it.

He's a jerk, but he's not President of the United States. One would hope we would have a President of the United States who is mature enough not to get in a wad about whether or not people show sufficient gratefulness. But we don't. We have a 10 year old in a 71 year old body in that position right now.

And you keep missing the point. Trump does this stuff because he knows it won't change a thing, but now many who feel that Ball is ungrateful are on board with Trump's thinking.

It's just like when Trump called out flag burners or those who refused to stand for the Anthem. Nothing changed, but many now believe that Trump feels the same way they do.

Trumps understands entertainment and what all the free advertising does for him and his reelection chances.

Because he won the electoral college?

Ball is just lucky Hillary didn't win. If she had and he pulled this stuff on her he'd be pushing up daisies.

There is definitely some validity in that comparison.

I think you're giving Trump way to much credit. I think we just, unfortunately, have a bunch of people in this country who respond favorably to a 71 year old man acting like a 10 year old and think that's cool. This idea that Trump is some brilliant strategist who "understands" things and is therefore making genius moves is, I think, totally off target.

I didn't say he was a brilliant strategist. I said he was a guy who understands what free media offers. He also understands how to brand himself within that free media. What else has he done?

You keep looking at him like he is a political animal. He is not. He is an entertainment animal.

This.

Lavar Ball has been front page news for about 2 or 3 years at this point.

I despise everything out him. I believe he is an idiot. However, he - or his strategist/publicist - is a fucking genius. He's build a damn empire in 2 years while doing nothing, having no talent, having the most over hyped children and riding their attention wave.

He and the Kardashian family are one in the game. Famous for litearlly nothing yet famous and continuing to make a fuck ton more money on it.
