Does anybody else see the irony ?

Does anybody else see the irony of the Divider in Chief and his Deplorable followers lambasting NFL players for not standing during the National Anthem while essentially calling a recently widowed war wife a liar ?

in both cases he's treating black people as lesser and other, insulting and disrespecting them.

plain and simple and entirely consistent with being a white supremacist with a white supremacist agenda.



if you're focusing about who's disrespecting the troops, you're taking your eye off the ball.

if you try to listen to his words and interpret them logically, of course it makes no sense.
if you think of it in the context of a white supremacist agenda, it makes perfect sense.

Everything has to be visceral red meat.

There is no way that Trump can apologize to the widow and her family now. His supporters would freak out. Only more pain will please them

we are dealing with soulless , heartless, shameless evil now
