And the right is not???? Yes I am right leaning but both play the same game. I’m old enough to have had devotions and said the pledge every morning in school. I also was trained in how to properly treat the flag and was part of the group that raised and lowered the flag each day. So I’m not some “leftist” who knows nothing or doesn’t care. This has become the current “wedge issue” to take our minds away from more serious issues.

Exactly! Both sides are shoveling the same BS.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t praise Trump for calling a “spade a spade” then criticize the left for dividing us because Trump’s rhetoric is divisive as well… This issue would have just died down and went away until Trump opened his mouth. As President of the United States, you (as well as everyone) should hold yourself to a higher standard then calling players protesting “sons of b*tches” while calling protesting Neo-Nazis “fine people”.

Trump never called neo-nazis fine people, that is a lie. He condemned neo-nazis, said not all were neo-nazis, some were fine people, implying NOT the neo-nazis. Are yall too dumb to comprehend? Why bother setting up straw men? What’s the point? Read the quote. He did call people protesting the flag and national anthem SOB’s. Good on him.
