A lot of this has been covered in the Kaepernick thread, but as it's actually Football Day, I thought it deserved its own thread.
Entire team takes a knee: Pittsburgh Steelers to stay in locker room during anthem after Trump’s attacks
‘I’m pissed off, I supported Donald Trump’: Ex-NFL coach Rex Ryan hammers president over anthem attack
I think Trump hoped that the billionaires would back him, not realizing that actual billionaires care about making money and not a name for themselves. Alienating the vast majority of your employees isn't something that NFL owners want to get behind.
I think the people who are like this are cafeteria patriots. Much like a cafeteria catholic (or religious person). Pick n choose what you're offended by and believe in, and ignore the contradictory stuff.
Im talking about the people who are offended by the "disrespect" of the flag, not the guy who tweeted that stuff.
Classic. Killing black guys....few protesting. Saying they're disrespectful to the flag? WE'RE ALL DOING IT NOW!!!!!!!!!! Hilarious.
