   Let's add another paragraph to that.   
      
   "People get fired for expressing social and political views   
   every day in the real world.  Spoiled selfish misguided athletes   
   are no exception to this rule.  We won't be spending our $$$   
   supporting a 2% radical faction who believes their employment   
   and public work venue gives them the right to shove their   
   unwanted social and political agendas in our faces.  We don't   
   have to take that and neither does an employer.  Go ahead.  Make   
   our day.  Get fired, hire a lawyer, and get your ass in court   
   over this.  We, as a jury of your peers and superiors, will be   
   happy to make it absolutely clear that you are legally in the   
   wrong.  Our money pays your salary.  When we take that away,   
   NFL, USMNT, USMNT and USWNT advertising revenue will disappear.   
   Your jobs will evaporate like farts in the wind, and you will   
   have nobody to blame but your own ignorant selfish selves.  In   
   other words, we'll cut your money, make you homeless, and put   
   you in breadlines because of your lack of committment to your   
   own job.  Is that what you want?"   
      
   President Trump made clear once again Saturday just where he   
   stands regarding athletes’ kneeling protests during the playing   
   of the national anthem.   
      
   In a set of Twitter messages, the president reacted to recent   
   news regarding NFL players and the U.S. Soccer Federation and   
   their positions on anthem kneeling.   
      
   U.S. Soccer – which oversees the U.S. men’s and women’s teams   
   that complete in the Olympics, World Cup and other tournaments –   
   recently rescinded its policy requiring players to stand during   
   the playing of “The Star-Spangled Banner” prior to matches.

   'DISRESPECTING' FLAG: 'YOU CLEARLY HAVEN'T BEEN LISTENING'   
      
   The U.S. Soccer reversal – and a recent video apology to black   
   players and fans by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell – were   
   responses to the May 25 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis   
   policy custody and the protests and rioting that followed across   
   the U.S.   
      
   President Trump has called the Floyd case “a very sad and tragic   
   death,” but didn’t appear interested in changing his previous   
   opposition to anthem protests.   
      
   “I won’t be watching much anymore!” the president wrote,   
   retweeting a news story about U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.,   
   calling out U.S. Soccer on its policy reversal.   
      
   On Thursday, Gaetz had tweeted that he’d “rather the US not have   
   a soccer team” anymore than to allow players to kneel during the   
   anthem.   
      
   “You shouldn’t get to play under our flag as our national team   
   if you won’t stand when it is raised,” Gaetz added.
