Not sure why Trump is bothering with this topic.

Maybe they're kneeling because bone spurs hurt when they stand.

This vet thinks Trump can take his Nazi Germany mindset and shove it where the sun don't shine....

I agree with Trump and question the patriotism of professional athletes who publicly refuse to stand for the United States national anthem.

Maybe they should go live in a country that is more to their liking.

And if you think their kneeling has to do with patriotism, you haven't been paying attention.

What he is doing is questioning the players patriotism. If the player wants to disrespect the flag then maybe he shouldn't be here. There are not many countries in the world that would pay someone millions of dollars to play a game.
I guess Trump thinks these guys should be a bit more grateful ?

Trump should stay out of commenting on the NFL and their rules but he was doing so as a guy not as the President.

I think he should be bringing more attention to the illegal aliens that seek sanctuary here in the US but on the weekends they fly the flag of their home country, the very one that was oppressing them? Weird.

Meanwhile , a cops approached a mother of 3 “mam, our scanners indicate a low level of patriotism, please report to our facility for re-education”..

Seriously? Do you have any idea in the world what America stands for? Maybe you should move to your own little dictator-ruled country!

I don't understand why people especially conservatives are supporting the president over the kneeling football players.

The football players kneeling are obviously being anti PC. They are being offensive which is the opposite of being politically correct. For those who are offended by the kneeling football players, they are sensitive snowflakes.

The football players kneeling should be celebrated!

Their stated reason for kneeling is not relevant.

Disrespecting an important symbol of the United States calls into question their true feelings towards this country.
