Trump said burning flag is acceptable?

Just 2 years ago, Trump agreed that burning the American flag is acceptable because of freedom of speech.
How can an athlete kneeling during an anthem can cause you to be so outraged.... But then show zero outrage at the person who thinks burning the flag is ok?

That's fake news, apparently. Unfortunately, Twitter doesn't have a way to report it as such. That said, it's believable, considering his legit past tweets such as:

Burning the flag is a legal issue. You legally can do it. Now if you do it then others could chose to not associate with you just like the anthem protesters.

Did you not watch his speech in Huntsville where he discussed the electoral college?

Yes he did. It is on tape. Won't bother to link it bc if I do, you'll come up with a reason why it is ok for Trump to agree that burning the flag is acceptable but kneeling during anthem is disrespectful.

No, I did not. It has no bearing on what he tweeted in 2012 concerning his mistaken belief that Obama lost the popular vote. That's on the record. That said, I would not be surprised that an older man with negative character like @real has displayed would flip flop on that declaration just four years later and proclaim it the greatest thing ever, believe him, considering it made him POTUS. Is that what he did?

I would like to see proof, because it's been retweeted a lot, and according to Snopes, it's fake.

Im not taking about a tweet. Im talking about a video I've seen with my own eyes.
Why do you need proof that Trump would say two totally opposite things when he does it all the time?

Because regardless of someone's history, I don't believe everything I read.

So, Trump agreed that burning the flag is acceptable. That doesn't outrage you. But an athlete kneeling during anthem on the closk does outrage you, right?

Never happened.

Yes it did. It is on video. Just love to see how all the right wingers will claim it never happened... But then justify it when they see the video.
But yeah, keep saying it never happened.

Burning flags and kneeling during the national anthem aren't 2nd amendment issues unless the government intervenes to prevent either from happening.
Trump is not being inconsistent here.

What does guns have to do with this debate?
Trump said kneeling during anthem is disrespectful towards the flag. What about burning the flag? Do you think burning the flag is disrespecting the flag?

Both are disrespectful as they are meant to be by the practitioners. Neither become first amendment issues until the government steps in to prevent them from occurring.
