Did someone build a golf stadium and I missed it?

What does a stadium have to do with the playing of the anthem? Are there no spectators at golf tournaments? Jeez you're an idiot.

Spare me your bullshit. The Dems paraded that guy our during their national convention for the sole purpose of making a political statement. The Dems did that no doubt because they cynically thought that they/he would be immunized against any criticism because of his status. If you want to be outraged at something, why don't you direct your outrage toward that.

Mr. Kahn felt like speaking out because Trump had been demonizing Muslims with every breath while wrapping himself in the flag of faux patriotism, not unlike what he just did in Huntsville (demonizing black athletes while morphing their message into being a protest against the flag, anthem and veterans). And you're ignorant enough to buy into it lock, stock and barrel. He's playing you like a fiddle. Congratulations.

You're ignorant enough not to realize that the Dems used Kahn like a prop during their convention for the sole purpose of advancing a false narrative. Congratulations.

The false narrative that Trump is a bigot who never misses an opportunity to demean Muslims and other minorities?
If only Stephen Paddock had been a Muslim … If only he had shouted “Allahu akbar” before he opened fire on all those concertgoers in Las Vegas … If only he were a member of ISIS … If only we had a picture of him posing with a Quran in one hand and his semiautomatic rifle in another …
If all of that had happened, no one would be telling us not to dishonor the victims and “politicize” Paddock’s mass murder by talking about preventive remedies.
No, no, no. Then we know what we’d be doing. We’d be scheduling immediate hearings in Congress about the worst domestic terrorism event since 9/11. Then Donald Trump would be tweeting every hour “I told you so,” as he does minutes after every terror attack in Europe, precisely to immediately politicize them.

He counts getting someone to say that a great victory! It's sort of long effort, but it's his most reliable way to "win."
