Radio Host Says Trump Didn't Cost The Knicks The Game -- But He Ruined Something Bigger

[RandySF]

Charlamagne tha God weighed in on President Donald Trump, who drew massive backlash for attending Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Monday at Madison Square Garden in New York, where the New York Knicks lost to the San Antonio Spurs 115-111.

During Tuesday’s episode of “The Breakfast Club,” the radio host didn’t blame the president for the Knicks’ loss, as ESPN host Stephen A. Smith and others have.

Instead, he asserted that Trump did something far worse: He killed the vibe.

“Donald Trump wasn’t responsible for the loss of the game, but he was responsible for the loss of joy that the New York Knicks fans had been feeling,” Charlamagne said. “One of the greatest things about this whole playoff run, this Finals run, is watching the joy that Knicks fans have.

1. Everything trump touches dies.

2. I'm just sorry

that there wasn't a centerwide cheer of "Yrump sucks!" or similar to overwhelm the noise=canceling system, the way theyre was way back when for Steinbrenner!

3. It's exactly why he attended

To steal the joy from the air in the bulding, from the hearts of the fans.

6. My take on it, too. He hates NY and enjoyed knowing

that he ruined the day for NYers.

7. Omg this is completely correct

I never would've imagined, but then, I am not a psychopathic sadist

[Ilsa]

4. Sports events form communities for

people with same interests. Fans feel a kinship to strangers, a beautiful thing.

5. I think DonOLD Rump cost the Knicks a win. Charlemane is wrong in my opinion.
