LeBron on Trump voters: "I don't think a lot of people was educated"

Thank you LeBron!


"What about Ohio voters who are your fans?"

"Well, I mean, that's a great question. At the end of the day, like I said, I don't think a lot of people was educated. And I think that's one of the biggest problems that we have that when it becomes vote time, that people are just not educated on either the individual or what's actually going on in the state of the world right now. Not that particular state, but in the state of the world. I don't think a lot of people are educated. And they make choices and say things that are uneducated. And I'm saying that the people of Ohio wasn't educated? Am I saying that some of the other states that voted for him was uneducated? They could have been or they could not have been. But that doesn't mean that it was the right choice. I mean, you can go back into the history of time in sports and say the same thing because we keep bringing sports and politics into it. So, you can look back at some of the greatest drafts of all time and say that, 'OK, did the Trail Blazers make the right choice when they took Sam Bowie?' I mean, can we all sit up here and say that they should have taken Michael Jordan? Yes, or no? So, for me as a professional athlete in this state and even though this state voted for Trump, that doesn't stop me inspiring the people of this state and inspiring the youth. Because I would be even more at wrong if I started to pound the people of Ohio. That makes zero sense. My job is and my calling is much bigger than that guy. I don't even like saying his name. So while I have this platform, I will continue to inspire the state of Ohio no only by what I do on the floor but also by putting 1300 kids into school and spending almost $45 million."


LeBron just alienated his city, fan base, and entire state. Keep up the good work!
