John Daly has great relationships with most big names, including former POTUS Donald Trump. However, there was a time when Daly was on a phone call with the ex-President and decided to hand over the phone to his friend Barkley. “I would love to. I appreciate it, Mr. President.” Barkley said on the phone.

At first, it was not clear what the short conversation between the two was about. But later it turned out that Trump was extending an invitation to the “NBA on TNT” analyst. However, there was another interesting and rather controversial conversation between Daly and the former President in March.

Donald Trump was heard saying that he would “hit Moscow” if Putin ever crossed the line with the United States. It was at the time when Putin had invaded Ukraine.
