The difference between Obama and Trump is exemplified by reaction to NFL players not standing for National Anthem
Obama
"I hope that people look at the pain experienced by the protesters and understand why they are kneeling during the Anthem.
But I hope the protesters consider the pain they cause many people (including veterans and relatives of those who lost their life fighting for their country) by their protest"
His message was let's work harder to understand each other. The protesters may change the way they protest and those who disagree may have more understanding.
Trump
"The NFL owners should fire the son of a bitches"
Results were more NFL players and sympathizers joined the protest; a substantial increase. Those who did not have a strong feeling either way took positions making the issue more divisive.
Trump dividing America more than ever.
