The hypocrisy of the establishment knows no limits. When millionaire athletes mock and desecrate the American flag, this is free speech. But if conservatives want to exercise their free speech it must be shut down, because it may offend the sensitivities of whiny, emotional snowflakes. According to the logic of the left, it’s OK for athletes to disrespect millions of fans, but if Donald Trump says the owners should do their jobs and show them the door, he’s called a white supremacist.
Men fought and died for this country so the players can mock and desecrate everything America stands for. I canceled my subscription to NFL Network and won’t watch the Super Bowl this year. It gets under my skin, million-dollar athletes playing the victim. No one gave me a damn thing in this world. I hold a job and obey the law — where’s my free stuff? Sometimes I think maybe I should sell dope or rob a bank because there’s more services for convicted felons and illegal immigrants than law-abiding citizens.
Do Democrats think making the NFL more sensitive will win back any disaffected Trump supporters? What they’re doing is making us more fired up for Trump’s reelection in 2020. People support Trump not because of the things he does — they love him because he appalls polite society. The media can keep labeling us as bigots and deplorable, but it’s losing its sting.
That said, while Trump’s funny and entertaining, I’m a little nervous he has the keys to the nuclear code. I’m sobered by the fact that he has the fate of civilization in his hands. But I’d rather be in a nuclear war than have a Democrat as president. I enjoy seeing snowflakes whine and wail because they can’t get their way. Although what Trump said about the football players was wrong, my contempt for the snowflake outweighs Trump’s crude, boorish behavior. I’m sometimes embarrassed by him, but I have no choice but to vigorously defend him. He isn’t my ideal president: I prefer John Kasich or Marco Rubio. However, this is the hand we were dealt.
My advice to Democrats: your smug, condescending attitudes are alienating the people you need for 2020. Keep playing the race card and identity politics. While you whine about the popular vote, Trump’s on pace to win again in an electoral rout.
