Trump Calls LeBron James "Maybe He's a Racist" in White House GOAT Debate

Asked at a July 24, 2026 White House press conference whether Michael Jordan or LeBron James is the greatest player ever, President Trump chose Jordan — a golf partner he called "a really good guy" — and said of James: "maybe he's a racist." James has endorsed Trump's opponent in the last three general elections. James has not responded publicly.
