President Trump weighed in on the LeBron James versus Michael Jordan debate, saying Michael Jordan is a friend and praising him while oddly suggesting LeBron might be a racist, noting that he only likes people who like him. The timing aligned with James signing a two-year, $8 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers, which Trump drew into the discussion during Oval Office remarks and a White House press event. James has publicly criticized Trump’s approach to race, while Trump has a long history of sparring with James, including previous social-media and public exchanges. The comments come amid ongoing controversy over whether LeBron James or Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time, with multiple articles recounting the exchange and James’ career moves. Trump’s latest remarks add to a pattern of contentious interactions with James dating back to 2017.
