It’s hilarious to watch people squirm to avoid the appearance of failure.
The country has turned on Trump, particularly as it relates to BLM and race in general. Because the genesis of the reversal is police brutality it’s put professional athletes kneeling back in the spotlight (see OT thread today on MLB)
TRUMP IS SET TO THROW OUT FIRST PITCH AT THE YANKEES GAME
So, how can he do that if players are going to kneel during the anthem? He explained on Hannity. LOOK CLOSELY AT HIS WORD CHOICE:
“ “It’s great that baseball is back, and other sports are back. I hope everyone’s standing; I hope they’re not going to be kneeling when the flag is raised. I don’t like to see that,” he said.
DID YOU MISS IT? HERE, he repeats the qualification:
“ He continued: “There are plenty of places you can protest. You don’t have to protest on the raising of our flag.””
****
Bwahaha.
“When the flag is raised”
“On the raising of the flag”
WHY DID HE USE THOSE VERY SPECIFIC DESCRIPTIONS OF THE TIMING IF THE PROTESTS?
