What's this?

As you see in my original post I made no

mention of Trump. But as usual it all goes back him. I make no mention of earning respect, the general said to just do it. The NFL and SOB tweet says it all in my mind. So many ways to say we respect the protest but not the forum. Is is so hard for the man to act Presidential? But this is back and forth arguments with no end so probably not worth continuing.
