This past week, Donald Trump received a firestorm of negativity and backlash after a leaked tape of him after an interview with Access Hollywood's Billy Bush revealed some seriously unsavory and inappropriate comments that he said about women. ​





Trying to save face, Mr. Trump took to social media to apologize for his comments, and defended himself by saying such comments were simply "locker room talk."





However, sports figures all over the country, from the professional level down to high schoolers, quickly jumped in to dispel such a claim, saying that those kinds of things are not discussed in locker rooms. Now the King himself has weighed in on the issue.

​​LeBron, and all those who have spoken out that this is not locker room talk are correct.





I'm sure the majority of us have played a sport at some point in our lives, especially during high school. Locker rooms are a place to talk with your teammates, have a good time, pump each other up before a game, and unwind after one. Those kind of comments are not commonplace in that setting.





LeBron knows and now other people do too.
