LaVar Ball made his highly-anticipated appearance on CNN Monday night, and the highlight was without a doubt his wishing President Donald Trump a happy Thanksgiving.
“Tell Donald Trump to have a great Thanksgiving because Big Baller is,” Ball told CNN’s Chris Cuomo.

Look at the smile on LaVar’s face. That dude is so happy he successfully baited the President of the United States into a feud that resulted in him going on primetime CNN. There are plenty of things to criticize about LaVar Ball, but his ability to control the media is not one of them. He’s an absolute master at manipulating the press into giving him free coverage.
At the very least, you’d think Trump would respect the fact LaVar has almost the same level of trolling expertise. Ball started a feud over Trump getting his son out of Chinese jail, and now he’s on CNN casually dropping a Big Baller Brand soundbite.
I have no doubt at all that this whole fiasco is working exactly as he hoped it would. Once again, LaVar Ball played everybody like a fiddle.
