Michael Jordan Issues Statement on Trump Comments

Many in the sports community have spoken out against President Donald Trump and his comments about NFL players. Trump said during a rally last week that athletes that do not stand for the national anthem should be fired, and he encouraged fans to boycott teams and players who do. Jordan was asked by the Charlotte Observer about Trump uninviting the Golden State Warriors to the White House after All–Star guard Stephen Curry said he would not go to celebrate their most recent championship.
