    Default Popovich issues blistering takedown of ‘soulless coward’ rump



    Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich has made no secret of his opinion of President Donald Trump, but he took his criticism to another level on Monday afternoon.

    Trump held a press conference on Monday during which he claimed that many past presidents have not made phone calls to the families of military members killed in action. Whether he was just being astoundingly ignorant or was telling a massive lie, the comments made Popovich—an Air Force veteran—irate. Unsolicited, he called journalist Dave Zirin of The Nation to vent.

    This man in the Oval Office is a soulless coward who thinks that he can only become large by belittling others. This has of course been a common practice of his, but to do it in this manner—and to lie about how previous Presidents responded to the deaths of soldiers—is as low as it gets. We have a pathological liar in the White House: unfit intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically to hold this office and the whole world knows it, especially those around him every day. The people who work with this President should be ashamed because they know it better than anyone just how unfit he is, and yet they choose to do nothing about it. This is their shame most of all.


    In addition to his military service, Popovich is now the head coach of Team USA. Luckily, his boss his Jerry Colangelo—not Trump.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    I'm surprised that people aren't making more of Trump's blatant (and yes, cowardly) lie about Obama - but it's really just a testament to how accustomed we've all grown to the way he fabricates so much of what he says, often on the spot.

    Popovich is spot on w/ this. There is too much shame to go around - too many enablers, from his staff to his supporters.

    When everything is as low as it gets, nothing is as low as it gets.

    I know, I am supposed to feign outrage at every indignity Thingy feels from Trump, but I just can’t muster the energy. So I am just going to not give a fuck

    The saddest thing about this particular lie - one of so many - is that he's pathetically trying to cover himself for having all kinds of time to tweet about crooked Hillary, the NFL and other personal gripes, but no time for days to even mention those fallen heroes.

    Trump lying about Obama only helps him within his base, which is basically all he has left anyway.

    Prove that Trump is a billionaire, and not a debt-ridden fraud pretending to be rich.

    Pop has a ton of money, also.

    You can't address his criticism, so you try to discredit him. What he said about Trump is spot on. Trump lied, again.

    I love the new low bar liberals are now setting for political discourse.

    Perhaps the most disturbing thing is not that Trump is President. Someday soon he will be gone and past history. More disturbing, however, is that we must live among those that voted for the idiot and continue to support him.
