Barack Obama Has Teamed Up With Lebron James Ahead Of Election Day

Barack Obama has gotten more and more vocal as Election Day nears. His latest stop? Joining Lebron James on HBO’s ‘The Shop’ to talk about what’s at stake for the country as we near the election.

In Miami this weekend, I dropped by The Shop to talk with @KingJames and @MavCarter about the NBA bubble, the racial justice movement, and what's at stake over these next seven days.

Obama and King James discussed a number of topics. Of which included racial injustice, and the push for a more inclusive future. Obama has recognized the efforts of Lebron James and many other athletes to make sure people are voting in this election.

The “More Than A Vote” movement has picked up major steam since Lebron and other prominent figures have used their platforms to try to shed light on the importance of voting.

Lebron has a history with current President Donald Trump. It’s no secret that there is no love lost between the two. Most recently ,Trump has called Lebron “nasty” and “a hater”. James has responded by saying that he has no interest “going back and forth” with Trump.

Hence, why Lebron called Obama “my president” in his Twitter post. It is pretty clear that Lebron will not be voting red in this election.
