Is there any ******* possibility whatsoever that we could focus on something more important than a few people who chose not to salute the flag for political reasons? Look at what a circus this is becoming. It is ALL about race, too, beneath all the patriotism bullshit. Dang that Pres. opening this can of worms over and over.
So it's The Donald's fault that the racists hate America? Did you drink the bleach when you tried to be blonde?
He who opens the can of worms did not necessarily make the worms or the can. He opens it, letting forth whatever stinking rotten crap is inside. It was a minor issue until Trump made it a PRESSING NATIONAL ISSUE that everyone seems to need to feel passionately about. It is all that was on the telly all day yesterday. It is ridiculous media hype.
Anyone who says those six NFL players who were protesting are "racist" are basing their argument on a ridiculous presumption anyway. Now Trump is saying first responders are also "patriots?" They are heroes, but there's a difference between a patriot and a hero. The man is truly full of shit and you are wasting your time trying to shore up his arguments.
