November Surprises
President Trump hurled insults at Lebron James in a Friday night tweet after the basketball star criticized him in an interview with CNN.

He concluded with an apparent reference to basketball legend Michael Jordan and the debate of who is the best basketball player of all time, saying: “I like Mike!”
