Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr took aim at Republicans in the aftermath of the midterm elections, poking fun at the party for not delivering on a campaign promise made by President Donald Trump, according to Yahoo Sports.

In the run-up to the vote, Trump appeared in an ad pledging that Americans would receive a $5,000 check if Republicans retained control of Congress, a promise that became known as the 'Trump Dividend.' Kerr, known for weighing in on political topics, used the outcome to needle the GOP over the unmet pledge, per Yahoo Sports.

The comments add to Kerr's long history of speaking out on political issues from his platform as one of the NBA's most prominent coaches.
