As much of black America contemplates burning President Donald Trump in effigy over his epic denunciation of the “son of a bitch” athletes that don’t respect the flag, the man who has driven the left to madness has struck again.
Not content to disinvite mealy-mouthed multimillionaire NBA superstar Steph Curry from visiting the White House with the champion Golden State Warriors, Trump blasted out two more tweets on Saturday afternoon that are guaranteed to bring howls of hate from wealthy black athletes who insist on trashing the country in which they have gotten rich for playing a game.
If a player wants the privilege of making millions of dollars in the NFL,or other leagues, he or she should not be allowed to disrespect….

…our Great American Flag (or Country) and should stand for the National Anthem. If not, YOU’RE FIRED. Find something else to do!

The tweets come after NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell ripped the President’s “divisive” comments at Friday night’s campaign rally but he likely only alienated more fans who are tired of the antics of those who have become disciples of a marginal quarterback who has somehow been transformed into a messianic figure.
It’s early and there are already calls for massive protests during Sunday’s games but it would seem that Trump has the moral high ground here, especially after Goodell picked sides and threw in with the malcontents.
If Goodell wants this to be the hill that he is prepared to die on, he may soon get his wish because his defense of the troublemakers has the potential to backfire big time and take his entire league down with him.
