Trevor Booker doesn’t not suffer fools gladly, as the saying goes. If he believes in something, you’re going to hear about it.

So after the third presidential debate, Booker made it clear who he thought had won.

Donald J Trump, you're fired! — Trevor Booker (@35_Fitz) October 20, 2016

For some reason, that disturbed a college radio sportscaster, Nick Morgesen of WHPC, the Nassau Community College radio station.

@marctalky1 @35_Fitz maybe you should worry about winning games then worrying about politics — All in with NM (@AllinWHPC) October 24, 2016

Booker did not let that pass unanswered, college kid or not.

Maybe you should worry about ur weak radio show than worrying about me! Thank me later. https://t.co/jeR4WRmYnz — Trevor Booker (@35_Fitz) October 24, 2016

He helpfully corrected Morgesen’s grammar.

By the way it's "than" not "then" https://t.co/jeR4WR5mYZ — Trevor Booker (@35_Fitz) October 24, 2016

Morgesen responded, in his best shockjock manner.

@35_Fitz At least my show won't end up dead last — All in with NM (@AllinWHPC) October 24, 2016

And his co-host, who says he’s a Nets fan but thinks athletes shouldn’t talk politics, compared Trump with Booker (who does have an $18.4 million guaranteed deal with the Nets and we doubt has ever taken a $900 million loss on his taxes.)

@35_Fitz Hey if he fails he still makes money; if you fail your not in the NBA anymore. You should keep your mouth shut and focus on B-ball. — Marc Talkofsky (@marctalky1) October 20, 2016

In the end, Morgesen and Talkofsky faced a barrage of tweets from Booker supporters

Bottom line from the exchange: Claiming athletes forfeit their rights as citizens is ridiculous. Athletes nowadays resent being characterized as jocks only. And oh yeah, Trevor Booker doesn’t shrink from controversy.
