President Trump is no stranger to voicing his opinion on Twitter. He once again used the platform, this time coming at LeBron James.

In an interview earlier this week, James discussed how sports has been a way to bring others together. He also shared he feels the president was “using sports to kinda divide us.” James’ words became a catalyst for the president to respond to.

This is not the first two have encountered a banter with one another.

Last September, James called President Trump a “bum.” James’ tweet came after the president rescinded his invitation to Golden State to celebrate their NBA Championship.

If that wasn’t enough, before June’s NBA Championship series was over, James stated neither Cleveland or Golden State would visit the White House.

Not long after those remarks, President Trump said regardless of who wins, neither franchise would be visiting the White House.

The two continue to go back and forth on Twitter. Now it seems the ball is back in James’ court. Will he respond, or will he not respond? Only time can tell what will happen next between the two.
