      Here's what I know. If white NFL players decided to take a knee during the national anthem for soldiers who've died in combat or police who died in the line of duty, they'd all be heroes right now. They'd never be fined. No new rules would be created. None of that.

      I actually even believe that if Black players stopped taking a knee for police brutality and white players did it, Trump wouldn't be opposed like he is now. It's the fact that it's Black players, taking a knee for Black people, that rubs white people the wrong way.

          Generalizations can be made. White mass killers are taken alive and black men are shot for holding a cell phone. If anyone thinks Trumps bating over this issue is not racial in tone I would love to live in whatever America you're selling.

          Pipe down, Spray Tan. You'll say anything to make white people look bad. Which is amusing considering you are one

          That is a fact. It is racially motivated to show people who running things. We know what he has done. Maybe this is just locker room talk.

          Shaun, you also actually believed that a Texas State Trooper sexually assaulted a citizen. After presented with evidence contradicting this false claim, I believe that you have failed to issue an apology to this public servant whom you defamed without evidence.

          You are absolutely correct! He calls immigrant gang members animals, but ignores terrorist crimes and mass shooting perpetrated by whites. When forced, he offers "thought & prayers", but never comments on the white criminals. 1/2

          And when a young black man, James Shaw, saved lives @ Waffle House, Trump refused to acknowledge his heroic act, even though Trump could've used it as "proof" of his "good guy w a gun" rhetoric. He is a racist beyond description. 2/2
