General Mattis Is Too Busy Defending The Country To Care About The NFL
2017-09-26
[Daily Caller] Secretary of Defense James Mattis steered clear of passing any type of judgement on NFL players kneeling during the national anthem during a press gaggle on a flight to India Monday.

"I’m the secretary of defense. We defend the country," is all Mattis would give on the subject. Pentagon spokesman Army Col. Rob Manning went a bit further in a briefing with reporters Monday with respect to service academy players, expressing his "hope" that they would stand.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly denounced the NFL and players who kneel during the anthem in recent days.

#1  I suppose India is a defensive asset, unless he's talking them down off Pak and Chin ledges.
