Have you noticed how Trump only goes after black athletes, despite white coaches and players have said much worse things about him?

Hillibilies and confederates are not allowed to use the N word any longer, so now the "ungrateful black man" theme replaces it. How dare these black man protest, given opportunity to play in NFL? How dare they not thank me for doing my job as POTUS (it's like a firefighter asking ppl for gratitude after putting out a fire and being a little b**ch when he doesnt get one).

Steve Kerr, Greg Popovich, and many others even in NFL - but white - said bad things about him and no attacks.

To racists in the South, black people should be especially grateful they are given equal access to opportunities only because they haven't had them for hundreds of years.

I'm a white European who came to the U.S few years ago and it amazes me how hateful rednecks are. They get offended by a black player peacefully kneeling to the anthem, but are ok with traitors collaborating with Russia (see the poll where 80% trump supporters say they are fine with collusion with Russia as long as trump stays in power).

Funny how Black people should be grateful to live in the country while White Americans say that this country isn't great.

I’d be grateful if the President got me released from Chinese prison after committing larceny.

The son said thanks the very next day.

That LaVar plays the controversy game to raise his brand awareness and the President of the United States falls for that, is beyond me. There are two choices here: Trump is either stupid, or deliberately dog whistling his base as he always does against people of color

“”Who?” LaVar told ESPN on Friday night when asked about Trump’s involvement. “What was he over there for? Don’t tell me nothing. Everybody wants to make it seem like he helped me out.”

Not all white Americans, Democrats still love their country. And some Republicans too. It’s the fascist Trumpers who hate it because there are people of color living in it.

It's not just blacks. ANYONE who isn't an American-born Republican white person is not allowed to criticize the US in any way shape or form. Doing so is "disrespectful, hateful, unpatriotic", etc.
