It's admirable that Lebron James would build a school, even if the cost was pennies for him.
But sadly, if the election of the first black POTUS for 8 years didn't change anything among my community then 1 school won't.
Your community?
You right wingers worship the wealthy. Why are you drawing the line with Lebron?
BTW...how do YOU know what Obama’s presidency did for black folks? You hated him and didn’t vote for him anyway.

You don’t know his politics. I don’t either.
This is about his school.

Lebron is getting a nice tax deduction for what he does and great that he does something with his money.
Actually I respect more what Laura says than Lebron as Laura has a better education and more experience than an athlete.
Laura Ingraham doesn’t take tax deductions?

These guys are damned if they do and damned if they don't. All football season people were posting that Kaepernick should put his money where his mouth is and give to his community - even though he does just that.
Now that Lebron does what people expected Kaepernick to do, they're finding fault with it.
Zero objectivity.
Anyone who remotely says anything bad about Trump gets the same treatment. Haven't you realized that yet. Trump supporters are the biggest hypocrites and snowflakes in world history.

It's already built and started taking in students. Take a minute to click the link to see it. It's a big deal with many programs designed to help at risk kids and their parents. Do you have the same negative, wait-and-see reaction with Betsy DeVos opens up one of her faith-based charter schools?
I have that attitude with most everything that's billed to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, don't you?
Or, do you believe the (generally) B.S. marketing right from the gate? It's NOT negative, it's called being realistic...

In other words, let’s hope that it fails. Lol
Yeah,yeah, yeah, we know, it's raaaaacist... As I said before, it's NOT anything other than being realistic. Just because it's built and just opened means nothing, let's wait and see if it succeeds.
Where I live right now there's been some schools built that were billed as the best thing for educating kids, promised the moon and in a short time they went bankrupt due to fraud, mismanagement etc. and then closed without notice to the families or staff, just a letter on the door.

He's a divisive uneducated idiot but sounds like he might be at least trying to do something positive....I applaud this effort, let's see if it actually helps anyone but LJ's image.
whatever he gives, he'll probably get back 3 fold in endorsements so also a good wealth move.
