Gregg Popovich is STILL Unimpressed with Donald Trump’s Presidency

The San Antonio Spurs coach continues his criticism of Trump.

San Antonio Spurs Coach Gregg Popovich has no time for Trump’s antics.

Before Game 1 of the NBA’s Western Conference against the Warriors, Popovich expressed his disdain for the president and his firing of FBI director James Comey, The Washington Post reports.

“Usually, things happen in the world and you go to work and you got your family and you got your friends and you do what you do, but to this day I feel like there’s a cloud, a pall over the whole country, in a paranoid surreal sort of way. It’s got nothing to do with Democrats losing the election,” Popovich said.

“It’s got to do with the way one individual conducts himself,” he continues. “And it’s embarrassing, it’s dangerous to our institutions and what we all stand for and what we expect the country to be.”

This isn’t the first time the Spurs coach has voiced his opinion on The Donald. Back in November, Popovich said he was “sick to his stomach” over the thought of Trump in the Oval and still is forming thoughts on the matter.

Popovich spoke out against Trump again after his inauguration.

During Sunday’s game Popovich also said, “But for this individual, he’s in a game show. And everything that happens begins and ends with him, not our people or our country.”
