Guys i have tried so hard to explain this, it has nothing to do with why hey are kneeling. Its he fact that they force their fans to listen to their politics when the fans arent expecting it. The actual subject matter is secondary.

I've been saying this for pages too.

"STOP ROCKING THE BOAT!"
-- America


Who each person blames for it -- Trump, football players, whatever cause, belief, etc. -- is immaterial.

The boat is being rocked and no one is happy.
Libs are the ones rocking the boat. Trump is calling them on it, and naturally they accuse him of rocking it.

Surely youve seen this type of scam before?

Quote:
Evangelical pastor Robert Jeffress addressed the ongoing battle between Donald Trump and kneeling NFL players on "Fox and Friends" Monday saying that these players should “be thanking God” they haven’t been “shot in the head.”
Quote:

Which reminds me of
“Every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud, adopts as a last resource pride in the nation to which he belongs; he is ready and happy to defend all its faults and follies tooth and nail, thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.”

Not sure if Eslim is meta or high as a kite.

Eslim is an advanced Google bot designed to interact with people. But they sent it here, and we broke it. To express their displease with us they let it go.

Would explain their new options:

Well I think that's a little bleak and misanthropic but I can get behind the general point, if not the scope.

How much more triggered does zero have to get before he starts taking a knee in his living room?

I just took the knee after dumping a load in your girl; in my living room.

Stay on topic. Clearly you don't know what triggered is.

Trump isn't perpetuating it by reacting to it, the players are by kneeling.
Oh really?

Right now you essentially have the President of the United States encouraging the denial of the First Amendment,veiled in a patriotic appeal toward loyalty to a flag that was created so that we might actually be able to raise our voices in protest.

Clearly Puerto Rico isn't important to him or his base... wonder why.

Did you call yourself a snowflake for being offended by people kneeling during the national anthem?
The melting continues...

Probably because they don't even know where it is.

Libs cant own their actions, they're always victims. Full on display right here.
They haven't taken responsibility for their actions for a long time.
Neither have conservatives.

Modern conservatism in a nutshell: it's about giving massive, budget busting, tax cuts to the wealthy in return for "campaign contributions" and then shouting "but deficits!!!" when the democrats are in power.

Soooo the GOP abandoned the latest effort to unwind the affordable care act.


Are they really just that inept to have 7yrs to come up with nothing that is appealing and then go 0-4 on every attempt while having control of both houses and the executive?

Or is that they don't really want to repeal it because they have nothing else to harangue on to whip up the anger in the base?

I'm gonna go with they are inept. Of course, Trump hasn't done anything either, so maybe it is closer to nobody really wants to get rid of it, but they sure will talk about it.

Zero, the problem is they used the ACA as a campagin issue for seven years.

They voted over 50 times to repeal it.

They did not spend a moment crafting an alternitive to it until this year, and then only a moment.

They are incapable of governing. They are quite adept at monkey wrenching any attempt at governing, even their own attempts.

T:DR: They have been the party of NO! so long they forgot how to say yes.

And no mater what anyone here thinks about Trump I will bet they think far less of the GOP congress.

If one fraction of the effort fake-patriots spent complaining about their precious football rituals on social media was spent doing anything worthwhile, the VA might actually offer adequate dental care to veterans by now.

Just something to think about.

Libs wont let anyone escape their finger wagging because we elected Trump. I'm sure it will work out in their favor, how could it not?
