Steph Curry, guard for the NBA champion Golden State Warriors, said recently that he didn’t want to go to the White House and meet President Trump. This morning, Trump put a quick end to any remaining speculation:
Going to the White House is considered a great honor for a championship team.Stephen Curry is hesitating,therefore invitation is withdrawn!
