Basically he is saying protest on your own time hardly a threat to the Constitution.
"HE" cant tell anyone when to protest - or assemble- or speak.
DDDDDUUUUUUHHHHHHH
Actually he can suggest whatever the fuck he wants whenever the fuck he wants....First Amendment....remember?
He can suggest all he wants.
It doesn't matter what he wants and it sure isn't going to happen.
No one can legally force someone to stand for the anthem. No one can penalize anyone for not standing for the anthem.
Our government can't force a private business to do anything that is against the constitution. Nor does our government have the right to force anyone to stand for the flag.
Millions of Americans have died so that everyone has freedom. Freedom doesn't mean you're free to force your views on anyone much less our nation. Freedom means that everyone is free to express themselves peacefully.
My dad volunteered for the Army during the Korean War. He wasn't drafted. My oldest sister was in the Air Force. One of my uncles died in the Baatan March in WW II, I have several cousins who were in the Air Force. A nephew in the Marines. I was in the Air National Guard.
We all served for all Americans to have freedom. Not so that you or any president can persecute any American for not standing for the flag.
I was in the Air National Guard. I refuse to stand for the flag. I refuse to put my hand over my heart and recite a stupid programming pledge I was taught as a child.
Real patriots don't need a piece of cloth, we don't need a song or pledge. We don't need to wear our patriotism on our sleeves. Our patriotism is real and we don't need stupid symbols to show it.
How we live our lives from day to day speaks much louder than any fake showing to a piece of cloth.
