The President of USA, Donald Trump is known for many things and clearly, his restraint is not one of them. He took to Twitter yesterday to call out the father of one of the College Basketball players he had helped get out of prison. He took a shot at LaVar Ball who himself was a basketball player and a very popular media personality.
He says he should have left them in jail and condemned LiAngelo’s father for trying to downplay his son’s crime.
Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!

He further called him ‘ungrateful’ as he pointed out that their release had not been because the offense was light but because he had internvened.
Shoplifting is a very big deal in China, as it should be (5-10 years in jail), but not to father LaVar. Should have gotten his son out during my next trip to China instead. China told them why they were released. Very ungrateful!

But is Trump really making a big deal out of nothing or do you think LaVar should have just kept quiet and thanked the President?
