You mean the alt-Right kind of political correctness.

Now he’s yelling at Goodell (NFL Commish) on Twitter.

“Roger Goodell of NFL just put out a statement trying to justify the total disrespect certain players show to our country.Tell them to stand!”

My God, what a day! Did Kelly just give it up?

I’ve seen speculation that Trump is still butt hurt over not getting to own an NFL team, and stuff from the USFL days.

Well, let’s not forget that the last time Trump took on the NFL he _won_.

$3 is what the jury awarded the USFL, but, still, a win is a win!

Hmm I wonder if he just made sitting for the anthem the Official NFL Protest® Against the Dotard? I guess the numbers tomorrow will tell, both on the field and in the stands.

So Dotard goes to the deep south and complains about some uppity Negroes to a basically all white crowd. Did he happen to mention anything about states’ rights?

Kelly went for a spa day, and Trump immediately got his phone out of the vault. Somebody’s going to bed without any supper tonight.

Isn’t that part of a spa day? No dinner, then dry heaves about what your boss said? I’m a guy, but I like to think I understand women. 😉

I don’t usually point at titles of articles, but in this case this Huffignton Post article title does say it all:

And you must remember how much Trump supporters love the old Stars And Stripes. It’s like in all pick-up truck roofs, belt buckles and stuff…

[Here](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/911789314169823232)’s the latest salvo in the Dotard vs Rocket Man WWE carnival show promotional campaign - Mayweather vs McGregor was just the undercard for the main event! Marvel as these fearless world stage fighters lock minds in an attempt to outpsych and outwit each other before the big fight. Let’s get ready to ruuuumble!

Another morning, and he’s at it again.

I’m hoping to high heaven that we see an entire team take a knee today as a unanimous F-U to this asshole.
