President* Trump Back To Exploiting National Anthem Issue To Distract From His Traitorous Behavior Toward Putin
President* Donald Trump thinks he can smell a "winning" issue when it comes to unifying his base, and distracting national attention from whatever offenses against logic and morality he commits in any given week.
The distraction merry go round has landed again on the issue of NFL players kneeling or otherwise being less than attentive during the playing of the national anthem before games. Trump's most recent demand is that players who kneel before games be suspended for the season , without pay, after their second such offense.
"The national anthem debate is alive and well again" Trump bleated on twitter, happy to have something to talk about besides how he betrayed his country by acting submissive to Russian president Vladimir Putin, even if he has to throw coal on the "fire" of outrage against the NFL players with his own tiny hands.
At the rate Trump does or says something stupid enough to attract national news attention in a given week (in other words every week), we can expect him to spend a lot of time this late summer and fall talking about football players and the national anthem.

The NFL National Anthem Debate is alive and well again - can’t believe it! Isn’t it in contract that players must stand at attention, hand on heart? The $40,000,000 Commissioner must now make a stand. First time kneeling, out for game. Second time kneeling, out for season/no pay!
There's no reason we should expect a racist traitor to support civil rights.
He does know that there's no football on now right?
Breaking news from CNN
"President Trump just farted and did not say excuse me. We will be dedicating the next 48 hours to this breaking story, and only this breaking story. "
Only a matter of time, this rich mans sport is done for. The NFL is in a death spiral. This will just make it faster. People don’t tune in to the NFL to get their social commentary. Keep it up dumbasses, you are only speeding your own demise .....
The only thing I could say is I don't watch it for nationalism either. I think they should stop playing the anthem all together. Play the Hank Williams Jr song instead.
well i dont think you have been to a NFL game for a while. The NFL is doing fine, it has enough support for what it is about, which is football. The distractions of trump and players is just that. But the NFL will be around for a long time.
The difference is how many people want to be honest about the point of the protests. That has nothing to do with rich or poor , it has everything to do with expectation and accountability.
In the end, If most NFL cities have the same type fan fare as we do up here, i am not worried about time running out on it.
There is a long way to go before pro football is not the most popular spectator sport.
Yeah, take Godells word for it. That ass clown is gasping for breath trying to save his 40+ million dollar contract. He’s so out of touch with his fan base he can’t talk at the NFL draft without them booing him every time. It’s hilarious.
The NFL viewership loss accelerated significantly the last few years over this protest. That’s a cold hard fact John. Tack it on to the CTE crisis and the NFL as we know it today is done. Not tomorrow, probably not next year but soon. Maybe in the next 5-10 years.
Take it to the bank.
