in the last quarter-century.......just off the top my head:

Jordan and Jordan Brand: donating $100 million to racial equality causes

Also Jordan: in 2001 donated his entire salary to 9/11 victims and causes.

Lebron built a school and pledged to put hundreds of kids through college at the cost of ~40 millions of dollars

Dikembe Mutombo built a Hostpitalcosting $15 million

40,000 scholarshops to 2,300 students......poentially $80 million in scholarships alone from this one program, which is one of many that he supports.

there...3 examples of basketball players doing far more than trump, the Billionaire, ever has personally....

The New Yorker.

You really need to do some research.

What, exactly, does "Marxist" training involve? And what does it have to do with BLM? A main criticism of Marxism is that historical materialism basically ignores race (and gender) as a factor in the evolution of economic systems.

Good for you, mmmmm. I'm so glad multi-millionaires can donate to worthy causes.

Now, I gave you a list of Trump's giving.

Oh, and as for Lebron... he supported war-monger Hillary, and shuns anti-war President Donald Trump. Good job, Lebron!

Why don't you ask the people who say it?

lol....I cite one of the most prestigious reputable magazines in the world and you cite some website called TheGivingTrump with a picture of a shrub carved in the shape of Trump's head.

How far off topic are you wanting to take the thread?

So, you were wrong.

These basketball players have personally donated more than Trump.

Just play the game. Stick to the sport and consider eliminating interviews too. Just play.

No. I said...

Ummm, do you mind citing that? Trump has been epic, for decades, in his help of people in need. That's a fact... and a lot of stories were written on it.

I also provided a long list of decades of charitable giving by DJT. Trump was giving when there was no spotlight called 'social media'. I applaud Lebron and others... they should.

Things can change, but as of today Biden has over an 80% likelihood of winning 2020 election. I already voted for Biden. I am sure most on the left share my worry that Biden may allow Military Industrial Complex to push him around. Republicans (or Libertarians) like yourself should work with Democrats now to ensure Biden does not get pushed around by M.I.C. If Lindsey Graham prevails in his election, I am concerned every day on floor of U.S. Senate, Graham will attempt to shame &/or provoke Biden into a war. I would not necessarily refer to H.R.C. as a war monger. Due to H.R.C.'s lack of testicles, H.R.C. (and Susan Rice) felt the need to show their toughness, assassination of Muammar Gaddafi, 2011. I hope Biden does not need to prove he is a man by starting a war. [I know technically, so-called locals on the ground in Libya killed Gaddafi. That's how C.I.A. rolls]

I don't think its off-topic, at all. Lebron can give all of his salary, but if he, or anybody else supports a bunch of murderers, then what good is it?

If it is because of social justice messaging, which I don't even really notice when I watch the games, then why were the Stanley Cup ratings and the US Open ratings also significantly down?

Bueller? Bueller?

That is most certainly off topic of the thread’s already silly premise.

I can only control my actions. And I vowed to never watch another NBA game after they disrespected the country on September 11th.

Doesn’t phase me if the NBA reaches new record revenues or you leftists call me whatever names you think up. They made a choice and I made a choice.

2020 when the truth is labeled dumb by leftist tools

It's true that 3 million Americans die every year. It's ridiculous to hold that type of attitude.

Where would you draw the line? 9/11 - no big deal? Murder - no big deal? Drunk driving deaths? No big deal.

I find it hard to believe 'Old News' would say 'People die everyday... Life goes on' if someone he loved was killed/died earlier than they would have otherwise.

I would say the same thing if it was my life that ended early. How selfish would I be if I wanted to have everyone change their life just so I can be “safe”. One of the best things about having peace is you don’t have to worry about what you can’t control. It’s all these people that are panicked and the irony is it’s their own liberal attitude that caused the media to promote the panic and then they get more panicked because the media tells them too. It’s a vicious cycle that they have created.

mmmmmmmmmm,

Well Trump not only sent people to college he built a fine university and guaranteed jobs to all its graduates.
