Any time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect. -- Woody Hayes

I am sorry to tell you, this is completely false.
I have no plans to vote (D) or (R) in 2020. But insane attacks on Trump, or any other politicians will not go uncommented on. You need to ask yourself if you are helping the political debate or if you are part of the problem.

@Mark III
Did you deliberately over pay your taxes this year to spite Trump? Or did you get a complete refund...............
If you did the later, you are reaping the benefits of Trump in Office.
Are you so convinced Hillary would have done the same. Hell, man, she told you she was going to run with Obama's policies of more taxes and the heavy hand of government. Is that what you want?

Give us a current example of his racism......... don't fall back on 50 years ago. It doesn't work
Trump was making birther remarks in 2016.

Who in the world says reciting the Star Spangled Banner at an NFL game is in honor of those who have fought for our country?
It is, after all, only a song.
If Trump was so insistent on people (some of whom aren't even Americans) salute the country, why not have the Pledge of Allegiance? After all, isn't that what your Supreme Leader wants?
(In all reality, neither are needed at a sports event and the Star Spangled Banner is historically a recent addition since WWI for baseball and since WWII for other sports)
Regardless, the players stated their intention as being a protest against police violence. Both black and white players. They have the First Amendment right to do that, whether you like it or not.
How crazy alt righties got pwnd by a conervative web site:

In the first place , a national anthem does not solely pertain to those who have fought in the military for a country.
A national anthem (also state anthem, national hymn, national song, etc.) is generally a patriotic musical composition that evokes and eulogizes the history, traditions, and struggles of its people, recognized either by a nation's government as the official nationalsong, or by convention through use by the people.

and second, the NFL players used that venue as a place to make a SILENT protest against police brutality. If they said they were protesting the US government or the nation itself then and only then would Trump have something of a case.
