    You said he fully supported him, he did not. If the NFL were to rule against these demonstrations it would not be a violation of their first amendment right. It would simply be enforcing workplace discipline which the employer has a right to do.

    Obama’s tenure ended in January 2017. CK started in August 2016 I believe. The media was declaring no path to 270 and Hillary will soundly defeat Trump. That’s what the “news” was saying anyway.

    Sadly, I now have to ignore you. The hyoerbolic bs you dumped on him is too much for me.

    Its exactly the message that Trump claims is their message.

    "I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color."

    The man who attacked John McCain for being captured during a war he avoided service in; who went after the family of a solider who died protecting our country;who said that members of our armed forces were a burden instead of celebrating their service.

    This is the man that has the nerve to question the patriotism of others.

    You have been Trumped. Trump started whipping up divisiveness and hate long before that. Are you one of the privileged and blissfully ignorant?

    I'm sure those whiny millionaires in football uniforms would love have a personal conversation with you, given the size of your internet balls, tp personally inform you that they are speaking for those who can't speak.

    Get back to us on your meeting and let us all know how you schooled them.

    I admire your faux love fest for RINO McCain. But don’t forget, Trump did not “attack” poor sweet nourishing McCain, he hit back as he does 100% of the time when his opponent attacks him.

    Nobody who matters gives a damn about McCain.

    Didn't you start a thread claiming it was the Russians who stirred up divisiveness and hate?

    You can't escape it, you implied black men would be violent over being called whiners.

    I'm a grown man, i'm pretty damn rich, if someone called me whiny i wouldn't beat their ass for it. that's how you end up sued.

    so again, why do you assume these anthem kneelers would immediately turn to violence?

    Of course you may have to Log-Off the internet first.

    I was in the Army and I honestly do not recall us celebrating men that were captured by the enemy. McCain may have caused a new philosophy for the Democrats and who would have thought a republican rino would cause Democrats to care about the captured of war. I am in awe they claim to care about those captured.

    Had the nuances of Trump been understood, he was celebrating the winners of war, not those captured. I personally believe Trump had no need to do that to McCain. I voted for the loser one time. I held my nose, i have to admit. I felt great voting for Mitt Romney. I am lukewarm on Trump but wanted him a thousand times more than Hillary. She is insufferable.

    The pair at the DNC convention, i have learned, were paid handsomely by the DNC to hear them trash Trump. Trump resented the parents of the dead trashing him given it was Obama who sent the fallen to die.

    extreme deflection when confronted with a strong counter argument must be a tactic you pick up in fake law school.
