US president Donald Trump was speaking at a rally in Alabama on Friday night when he took declining NFL TV ratings to task, going on to claim that the lack of physicality in the game was a reason for this.
Then he turned his attention to the Milwaukee man's tendency to kneel during national anthems, and without mentioning by name, referred to him as a "son of a bitch."
“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL Owners, when someone disrespects our flag to say, ‘get that son of a bitch off the field right now, he’s fired, he’s fired,” Trump said to the crowd.https://twitter.com/nick_ramsey/status/911391835888726017?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nydailynews.com%2Fnews%2Fpolitics%2Ftrump-takes-veiled-shot-son-b-kaepernick-speech-article-1.3514708
“You know, some owner is going to do that. He’s gonna say, ‘that guy disrespects our flag, he’s fired.’ And that owner, they don’t know it. They don’t know it. They’re friends of mine, many of them. They don’t know it. They’ll be the most popular person for a week. They’ll be the most popular person in the country.”It really is amazing just how brainwashed Trump's following is, and many of them were celebrating these comments like they were gospel, just like his own son was. https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/911403926120914944 There are still sane people out there, and Kaepernick's mother Teresa spoke of her pride at her son's actions, as did many more. https://twitter.com/BerniceKing/status/911404814931828738?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nydailynews.com%2Fnews%2Fpolitics%2Ftrump-takes-veiled-shot-son-b-kaepernick-speech-article-1.3514708 https://twitter.com/BishopSankey/status/911412085292183552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nydailynews.com%2Fnews%2Fpolitics%2Ftrump-takes-veiled-shot-son-b-kaepernick-speech-article-1.3514708 https://twitter.com/B4IleaveU/status/911436659907948544 The war goes on.
