Trump: Fans who booed kneeling NFL players are demanding 'respect for our flag'

President Trump said Monday that fans who booed NFL players who refused to stand during the national anthem were demanding respect for the country's flag.

"Many people booed the players who kneeled yesterday (which was a small percentage of total)," Trump tweeted.

"These are fans who demand respect for our Flag!"

Hey Trump FUCK YOU, they are just as stupid as you are and that flag.......................that flag means nothing, and if you don't know that it's the Constitution, that protects them, then leave the country and go and find a place called flag,its just as materialistic as you and them.
And by the way, I am getting kind of sick and tired watching my tax dollars, being flown over events, by military jets, and military personnel standing on a field waving a "flag", the size a football ball field for instance........................why do I have to see a jets, or the Black Knights jumping out of helicopters.........................why?
