Ha!
Would post a link but too medicated to do much more. Just laughing.
Good drugs with surgery. Ha!
I saw that earlier today. A reporter from Philly asked six people in that crowd if they knew who the Philly quarterback was and none could answer. It reminded me of the shills Trump hired to the kick off of his campaign.

ps Don't you pull any stitches laughing, (grin).

NFL free agent Colin Kaepernick’s legal team will reportedly seek federal subpoenas for President Trump and Vice President Pence to testify in his grievance alleging NFL owners colluded to keep him out of the league.

Yahoo Sports reported Thursday that lawyers for the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback will look to compel testimony from Trump, Pence and others who are familiar with the president's stance against players who protest during the national anthem.

Sources told the site that the subpoenas would likely focus on the Trump administration’s involvement with the NFL since Kaepernick opted out of his contract with the 49ers in 2017.

Yahoo Sports noted reports that Trump had spoken directly with some NFL owners about the protests, with sources telling the outlet that those conversations, and any pressure exerted on the NFL from Trump officials, would shape the subpoenas.

Kaepernick filed a grievance against NFL owners last year, alleging that they colluded to keep him out of the league.

Leaders from both teams vying for the NBA championship have already said that they do not want to be invited to the WH.

Trump attempted to sing along to “God Bless America,” but managed to get just two lines in before he obviously no longer knew the words. Trump didn’t just decide to stop singing. He picked the song back up when the chorus repeated:

I don't care, my guess is as good as it gets.

The NFL players are at it again – taking a knee when they should be standing proudly for the National Anthem. Numerous players, from different teams, wanted to show their “outrage” at something that most of them are unable to define. They make a fortune doing what they love……

…..Be happy, be cool! A football game, that fans are paying soooo much money to watch and enjoy, is no place to protest. Most of that money goes to the players anyway. Find another way to protest. Stand proudly for your National Anthem or be Suspended Without Pay!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 10, 2018

So, exactly how does the Racist Dotard plan to suspend their pay?
