BLUF:
[American Spectator] And the NFL has the audacity to suggest that the current politicization in football was created by Donald Trump? Though I don't agree with him using his platform as president to call for the firing of kneeling players or for a boycott of the NFL, these are certainly not circumstances of his design.
On Monday Night Football this week, the Dallas Cowboys and the Arizona Cardinals both locked arms and knelt before the National Anthem, acknowledging the protesters' position. Then they stood and locked arms during the National Anthem. It was a charade all too obviously meant to placate fans, while still giving a platform to espouse the dangerous and entirely untrue Black Lives Matter narrative. "Unity" was the theme. More "division" is what you can expect.
The most troubling thought crossing my mind? That somewhere, Colin Kaepernick is smiling, quite pleased with himself. |
