"Even if you hate Donald Trump to the very fiber of your being, isn’t it a positive sports story that he was able, through his relationship with China and the work of the state department to get these three UCLA basketball players released without them having to do years of prison over this shoplifting incident?”
Clay Travis thinks the mainstream media went out of their way to muffle any positive stories towards Donald Trump in his role in helping the three UCLA players charged with stealing sunglasses from a Louis Vuitton store outside Shanghai this past week.
Even though Trump was publicly acknowledged and thanked by the players on Wednesday in a Live press conference, Travis says the massive intersection of sports and politics, with a U.S. President playing a vital role in the release of college athletes in trouble abroad, should have yielded much more favorable coverage of the often besieged President.
