Donald Trump’s overt racism has hit its peak. Following the NFL’s ridiculous decision to penalize players and teams for kneeling during the national anthem, Trump shared his thoughts about the matter.
During an interview with “Fox & Friends,” Trump revealed that the matter should be handled with more severe consequences. He wants to force Black NFL players to leave the country for kneeling during the national anthem.
“I don’t think people should be staying in the locker rooms, but still I think it’s good,” Trump said. “You have to stand proudly for the national anthem, or you shouldn’t be playing, you shouldn’t be there. Maybe you shouldn’t be in the country. You have to stand proudly for the national anthem.”
Trump’s words are disgusting, racist, and proves that he and his followers are the lowest examples of the human race. He wants to force legal citizens to leave the country for peacefully protesting the killing of unarmed Black people in America. Trump has yet to condemn police shootings of unarmed Black people, but he sees something wrong with kneeling before a football game.
And that’s why the NFL owners did the wrong thing by imposing a penalty on players who kneel. By attempting to put out a fire, they created an explosion. NFL owners have sided with a racist who has forced them to change their business structure. From a legal standpoint, a president can not influence an organization or company. By following Trump, the NFL has put themselves in a troublesome position.
Black NFL players must take a stand by taking legal action against the league for its decision.
