Multiple NBA players, most notably LeBron and Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry, have announced they are going to vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. Trump and his Republican party have been against the Black Lives Matter movement, so it's not a surprise that the league is not a fan of them.

During the seeding games at Walt Disney World before the 2020 playoffs started, Trump said he wasn't going to watch NBA games since players started kneeling during the national anthem as their way of protesting racism and police brutality against people of color.

James, in response, said no one in the league was going to lose sleep over Trump's stance.

2020 has been a stressful year due to the death of NBA legend Kobe Bryant, the killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, the tragic shooting of Jacob Blake, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This fly event with Pence was a nice change of pace to give America a solid laugh.
