“By the way, I have to tell you something,” Trump said while talking about Barkley’s tremendous feat against the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he passed back on a defender. “I was with the giants and the chief coach and some people and said: ‘Do anything you have to, but do not lose Saquon.’ They lost Saquon.
“That was not good. I called that. It was easy to call because he played very well for the giants. I can tell you that. He made the right decision because it is a team sport, and there are great people in this team.”
However, the comment did not seem good with Big Blue.

The spokesman for the giants, Pat Hanlon, told Front Office Sports “there were no conversations” between the organization and Trump about the star corridor. Hanlon also commented on Trump’s comments on social networks.
“With due respect, stop scoring. Be the leader we all want you to be. And my 401K wants you to be. He added about X, labeling the president’s account.
Barkley went out with the president on Sunday. It was seen in Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey, before flying back to Washington with the president on Air Force One.
He defended his decision to kick him with Trump in a position before the White House celebration.

“Lol, some people are really annoying because I played golf and turned to the White House with the president. Maybe I just respect the office, not a difficult concept to understand. I simply committed with Obama not long ago … And I hope to finish my round with Trump! Now, now you leave my mentions with all this policy and have an incredible day.”
