re: It is beginning to look like some NFL Owners put Trump up to this attack

Trump claims some NFL owners told him they were essentially afraid of the players and felt they "needed to do something" but for some reason couldn't. This would make sense given that Trump's first statement was, "wouldn't you like to see an 'owner'...."
Did this happen at the last Bilderberg meeting? Or Bohemian Grove?

What about the masses of Americans who are livid, boycotting, and hoping for the destruction of the NFL if they don't get their shite together and show due respect to the country and people that made them millionaires?
The masses of Americans were quiet until Trump made the comments last Friday night, at least that is my recollection. If the OP is to be believed (and I don't believe it) then Trump made his comments on behalf of the owners, not on behalf of the people it supposedly offended to the point of inaction prior to Friday night.

Of course it strains credibility. It's about on par with the assertion that the "protests were waning and that Trump threw gasoline on the fire" and just enraged more of them to the point that they just couldn't restrain themselves from joining the theatrics.
What amazing power this guy's got that with one statement he's able to turn what were once dedicated, loyal, patriotic Americans into resentful, arrogant, contemptible ingrates.
We have a big liberal here on WGSO who believes that and is sticking by it. But then he also purports to be a conservative.
What's closer to the truth is that once again even if it was inadvertent, just as with the media and apparently what will continue to be a part of his history, Trump did the country another favor by getting what has always been there to reveal itself.

Well your recollection is faulty. People have been raising hell since CK started the whole thing. NFL viewership has been down since at least then, and everyone knows it. The first wave of fans leaving the NFL started with the treatment of Tim Tebow.
Real Americans, who have stood with the NFL against the SJW types spoiling for the NFL's destruction, have been woke as hell since Tebow was destroyed for his beliefs.
The anthem and flag protests were nothing but a stab in the back to the very people who supported them.

If a white NFL football player had on a KKK shirt at a presser after a game I don't think the owners would be afraid to tell him to hit the road. Obama made BLM and the black panthers an acceptable thing as if they are rightious. He had them to the WH. What would happen if Trump had the KKK to the WH?

Of course it's not. The Twitter twit thinks these owners can just walk up to a large group of players and say "you're fired!".

fine or suspend players who continued to protest.

The masses of people have been conditioned over the last 8 years to STFU or you will be called every "IST" in the dictionary. Trump taking this position is giving people their voice back.

Tom Brady could put on a white hood and burn a cross at the 50 and keep his job...

A few yahoos from Mississippi? There has to be a KKK in order to have KKK at the White House. You're comparing BLM with millions and millions believing in it, to the KKK which is at maybe 5k members and declining

Well clearly trump was the only one who could end all this nonsense. And in one week he has ended it. Pretty impressive really.
