And that's ^^^^ not easy.

Very likely any person left of Whoopi is on some psychotropic drug to deal with anxiety brought on from TDS.

Can watch on YouTube. LINK Not that I disagree with him but a Kicker probably should STFU and just do his job


Why?

Dude is at a small private Catholic university with his fellow Catholics giving a commencement speech. The only reason this is being blown up by the is because ButtKicker is a white Christian male with wholesome family and he just happens to be a 2 time Super Bowl champion with the KC Chiefs.

ButtKicker didn't reach out to the NFL or Gaslight Media to make this commencement speech mainstream, the Gaslight Media made a point to exploit the speech because they know it plays to their Woke viewers and the NFL is simply doing a CYA stand off by releasing a statement saying they don't share ButtKicker's political or religious views.

The incels in mamas basement is the fragile minded Wokesters playing video games and watching porn.

On it's own, I see no problem with this. Women and men should both strive to be successful in their career.

I couldn't imagine my wife being a "home maker", just like I couldn't be one myself. We share the pride and responsibility of keeping our house and excelling in our careers.

But yes, we are most excited about our marriage and raising our children. We work to provide and enjoy the fruits of our labor with our family.

He actually a 3-time champ. He's been there for all 3 of the Mahomes era championships. That's also sort of the problem. Guys like Butker have to realize that when you win that many Super Bowls, you automatically become more famous and have a national spotlight on you. Not saying the comments Butker made are right or wrong, but many people don't share the beliefs he has which will cause that large group of people to get up in arms and throw a fit.

ButtKicker was addressing fellow Catholics at a private Catholic university, his commencement speech was for that audience. ButtKicker wasn't at a public event spewing his religious and political beliefs......it was a private ceremony.

And what a dumb thig to turn a commencement address into a divisive political statement. I hated when my speaker (AL Gore) did that on the opposite end of the political spectrum


I’ll give you this one - I’m glad he isn’t afraid to speak his mind and voice unpopular beliefs but that might not have been the best venue. I was glad Steve Scalise eschewed politics at mine.

Right. Who would want to go back 60+ years ago to a time when prices were one tenth what they are now & our major cities weren't filthy crime-ridden homeless encampments?

LSU is a public state university, this was at a small private Catholic school. A bit of a difference in venue.

LSU has a diverse graduating class, while this was likely 100 percent Catholic.

Some of his statements are kinda on the whackadoodle side like comparing IVF and Euthanasia together.

It looks like the rest is being taken out of context.

Well all of Butkers jerseys are selling like hot cakes. All of the women’s jerseys have sold out. I guess America, and especially those with money, support Butker.

Well spoken, she is. And was raised by a stay at home mom. And she was not afraid to speak her mind.

Steve Cortes
@CortesSteve

Watch Gracie Hunt, daughter of the Chiefs owner, defend Harrison Butker from the woke mob:

Steve Doocy: “America would like to know the reaction from the Hunt family regarding the kicker, Harrison Butker.”

Gracie Hunt: “I can only speak from my own experience, which is I had the most incredible mom who had the ability to stay home and be with us as kids growing up. And I understand that there are many women out there who can’t make that decision but for me in my life, I know it was really formative in my shaping me and my siblings to be who we are.”

Doocy: “So you understand what he was talking about?”

Hunt: “For sure, and I really respect Harrison and his Christian faith and what he’s accomplished on and off the field.”

I don’t agree with 90% of his speech, but this is not what he said.

What a shite take, but that doesn’t shock me. Anyone stupid enough to vote for a retarded pdophile would have a similar reply.
