Conservatives just need to stop watching ESPN unless it’s a live game they want to see. I only watch college football and basketball on ESPN . As long as these retards keep getting rating they will keep pushing their liberal beliefs.
I've been doing it for years.

Racist? I see you're a real "critical thinker." You're so stupid all you can do is parrot the party line. Too bad your mom didn't abort you.

The comments are deemed racist by the racist people that claim they are racist because they are racist people...

Dan actually thinks his listeners care about his thoughts on anything non sports related. Sad.

ESPN is losing big. Stick to sports. Get rid of political correctness as a priority. Please.

If you think about it, this "logic" doesn't even make sense. If ESPN had been serious about sticking to sports coverage and divesting themselves from politics, they would've made that "sincere" decision from both a philosophical and practical standpoint. ESPN would not have changed their mind about their "policy" based on one rather innocuous event.
As I said earlier, this is all gets back to corporate ownership. Disney owns both ABC and ESPN. Disney is the reason why shows like "The View" bash President Trump 24/7, why "Good Morning America" is hosted by a Clinton sycophant (who also happens to be the face of ABC News), and why an alleged sports network like ESPN engages in one-sided left-wing political discourse. A conservative version of Dan Lebatard or Jemele Hill would never get hired by Disney/ABC/ESPN.
Why any conservative would ever give Disney a dime of their money is beyond me.

I watched his stupid show a couple times and was not impressed. I don't think he has much of an audience anyway and i bet the make up of his audience is equal for trump.

You are talking in circles and shouting racism as if it means anything coming from your ignorant mouth.

I think Trump attacked women’s credibility by using their ancestral homes as his basis. My pointing this out is MORE racist than telling black women to go back to Africa?
Although Dems like the Clinton's, Kerry, Biden,Sanders ,etc....get accused of hating America they are almost never told to go back to where they came. The "go back to ...... seems reserved for minorities who "have it good " here & should be grateful.
I've seen the go back to Africa signs / chants in past Klan rallies . Interesting to see it go mainstream.

Trump is criticizing the people who are dividing America.

This is racist.
No dipstick, it isn’t. It is telling her and anyone else to stop trying to make here, more like there. Leaving a shithole and being allowed into the greatest country on earth is a privilege, and we damn sure don’t need her trying to make the us more like the shithole she came from. Race doesn’t have a fricking thing to do with it.

Trump’s support has held steady at around forty percent. If those people haven’t been run off yet, they aren’t going anywhere short of something big. He needs about eleven percent of the “ middle “. He got some them last time from people that are REPULSED by Hillary.
I thought the same thing he tweeted while watching some of Omar ‘s videos, but saying it crossed the line of making him look like the bully the Dems want him to be. You can’t change someone’s mind if they aren’t listening. That’s why posters saying someone should have been aborted is not helping win the argument. I know u don’t care but u give fuel to the argument that Trump supporters are mean bigots. It’s exactly the same as the squad unable to argue the merits of their positions and saying all opposition is because they are women of color. They leave the facts and get personal.
There is thirty or forty percent of the people that are never Trumps and refuse to listen. The fight is for the rest. You can’t get them to realize he wants a great America for all citizens if they aren’t listening.
I do believe he wants the squad to be the face of the Democratic Party because their SOCIALISTS VIEWS are as REPULSIVE as Hillary. He just went too far which is why he back peddled some

But that’s beside the point.
It’s a sports channel—one that already has a history of making inappropriate political remarks.
For those of us who vehemently disagree with ESPN’s ideological bent, it’s annoying that for certain events, it’s the only option.
