Dem calls for all NFL players to kneel during national anthem
2017-09-24
[THEHILL] Former Democratic Rep. Donna Edwards (D-Md.) tweeted that she hopes all NFL players kneel during the national anthem on Sunday in response to President Trump's remarks attacking Colin Kaepernick.

Edwards, who left Congress earlier this year, called Trump a "white supremacist who squats in our White House" in her tweet.

Trump suggested at a rally Friday night for Alabama Senate candidate Luther Strange (R) that NFL players like Kaepernick who kneel during the national anthem should be fired and fans should walk out.

"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b---- off the field right now,'" Trump said, adding, "'He is fired.'"

#6  Watching these overpaid semi-literates play the victim card is nothing less than surreal, imo.

#3  Those millionaire players and billionaire owners enjoying taxpayer funded stadiums protected by taxpayer security personnel should be a little more respectful.

#1  They make millions and then spit on the flag. Just another liberal organization that will be bankrupt soon. In the mean time lets start the WFL (White Football League) and let NFL stand for the ... and see who takes home the bigger pay check.
