Gobert calls out Tomi Lahren for backing Trump's 'shithole countries' comment
Rudy Gobert is an international treasure.
The Utah Jazz center did not take kindly to Fox News commentator Tomi Lahren backing President Donald Trump's claim that various developing nations are "shithole countries."
If they aren’t shithole countries, why don’t their citizens stay there? Let’s be honest. Call it like it is.

The All-NBA big man, who hails from France, challenged Lahren's tweet.
Do you know what it means to have Dreams? To actually have to work for something? Does the fact that i left France to come chase my dream here makes France a shithole? Or that just applies to African countries? Getting paid to divide people really looks like a shitty job. https://t.co/va2KbfRuSG
