My Sister in Law burned her Cowboys cap because of the kneeling protest.

On the plus side, getting Trumpists off of my Facebook feed is a lot easier now, since there seem to be an awful lot of people on my friends list who would never say anything overtly racist/anti-semitic/etc., but boy do a lot of them have opinions about how these black athletes are so willing to take "our money" to perform for us and now they won't just shut up and perform like the "non-overt racist slurs*" they are. Really startin' to look like I have no need to attend my 20 year reunion next year. It's goes hand in hand with the people who think actors and athletes should stick to acting and sports instead of getting involved in politics. Why, because dental hygienists and construction flaggers are so much more politically astute? What the fuck does someone's profession have to do with the value of their opinion or their experiences?
*So far I've seen: trained apes, paid monkeys, sideshow acts, darkies, and more.
Meanwhile the president is a reality tv show host.
Exactly - and a failed sports franchise owner; who out there right now is more qualified to speak about the current political administration than actors and athletes?!
There really needs to be a recap about all failures that Trump had trying to break into NFL ownership.[DOUBLEPOST=1506527347,1506527094][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh good a couple of outlets remember.

Would that have made him ineligible to run for President? Because then you should have taken one for....well, everybody.
I think you should be wishing he'd bought the Pats instead.
Or wishing he did not destroy the USFL.
I don't think he would've ran if he got the team. He also probably would've moved then though and that would hurt a ton.
On the other hand, yeah him being president is probably worse.
Nope. I don't think he ever had a hand in the original decision or it's reversal. But he sure made himself look like more of a monster with that "shipping industry" line.
It means there's something else awful that needs attention drawn away from it.
The Russia thing is still happening. The Nazi thing is still happening.
I thought that was the reason Trump got elected in the first place...to draw our attention away from something else.

I got $3 on the NFL.
He keeps repealing and replacing his cabinet.
Looking at the number of people liking his tweets, I'm astounded that his support base STILL eats up whatever he says.
When Trump leaves office, whenever that may be, there will be a reckoning. Not by the law, but by the rest of society. I wonder how Trump's fan club will feel 20 years from now when they explain why they voted for him.

Be careful, that sounds an awful lot like "list-making" (the heavy discussion of which started here)

To be fair, she probably voted for Bernie in the primaries and then didn't vote in the election.
Whether it matters depends on location. For example, my county voted 86% in favor of Hilary, so more people voting for her here wasn't going to make any difference.
I was gonna say that most Americans simply didn't vote. The turnout was apparently 55%. Add in those too young to vote and you probably get a majority
