Wouldnt you love to see one of these NFL owners,

when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out! He’s fired. He’s fired!’

Uh, no.

What I’d rather see is the Republican party – who put this Idiot in the White House in the first place – say, “Get that son of a bitch out of office right now.”

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect the citizenry by focusing on who’s kneeling during the anthem at a sports event at the same time millions of Americans, who are living in dire conditions in the aftermath of hurricanes, don’t even warrant a mention.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect our democracy by decreeing that people have no right to peacefully protest anything they choose to protest without being labelled unpatriotic.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect the office of POTUS by making statements about black athletes being “son’s of bitches”, or declarations that there are “fine people” among white supremacists, Nazis, and KKK members.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect the responsibilities of his position by spending his time tweeting covfefe, watching FOX-News, and playing golf.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect our nation’s principles by demonstrating his racism, his misogyny, his xenophobia and homophobia at every opportunity.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect the intelligence of all Americans by continually lying to them about everything.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect the Oval Office by using it to convey classified information to our enemies.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect our allies by insulting them, belittling them, or being too lazy and/or stupid to learn the names of foreign countries.

What I’d love to see is a president who doesn’t disrespect our flag by consistently holding the position that what that flag stands for is not our country, but HIM – HIS ludicrous ideas, HIS ego, HIS self-serving vision of a country where anyone who disagrees with HIM is an unpatriotic “son of a bitch”.

What I’d love to see is a president who IS a president – an intelligent, well-informed leader, a role model, a uniter, a man or woman who uses the position of POTUS to advance the ideals of democracy around the world, while protecting those same ideals at home.

What I’d really love to see is the man who has disrespected everything our country holds sacrosanct declared FIRED and OUT!!! by the party who elected him. But apparently they’d sooner see our American values diminished or destroyed rather than admit they elected a man who has absolutely no respect for anything or anyone other than himself.
