Somehow I feel like the free speech brigade will have a lot less to say about this

I agree with Trump that it is extremely disrespectful to kneel during the national anthem (or stay in the locker room). And no, standing for the anthem doesn't mean "I love Trump!!!" or "I love Police Brutality!!!" - it's simply an action that shows you are an american who respects our flag, our country's existence, and our founding fathers. Nothing more.

However, whether there should be consequences for these players is a matter for the NFL only, and it is inappropriate for the President to inject himself into such matters.
Thanks, the moderate hero voice was one we really needed to hear from
