Pretty good sign.
The 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, is in Philadelphia on Thursday to speak at the GOP retreat. Not surprisingly, thousands of people came out in the ardently Democratic city to protest Trump and many of his issues.
At least one protester was seemingly behind Trump's claim of voter fraud... except in the NBA All-Star Game voting.
It's a bipartisan issue that both Republicans and Democrats can agree on: Joel Embiid deserves to be an All-Star.

As you may be aware, Joel Embiid received the third most fan votes of big men in the East. Under the old rules, this would have earned him a spot in the All-Star Game.
Alas, Embiid will have to wait to see if he is named as a reserve later today. Sad.
