You want me to say yes or no on something which I proclaim did not happen.
I thought we were having a mature conversation.


I thought so as well. That’s why for the sake of conversation I said we can remove names and partisan affiliation from the equation. I simply asked if you are alright with the president, not Trump per se, using their influence to alter the policies of a private business. It’s a hypothetical, that’s all.


Fair question, normally I do not agree, but politicians do it all the time.

In the case of the anthem, it would be different. A president swears an oath to protect the constitution and it would be his patriotic duty to request that the flag be respected. I have no problems for the players to champion their causes and exercise their first amendment I just draw the line when it comes to the anthem and flag. I just find they are using the wrong public forum and I still maintain more people would join their causes if it would be held other than during the anthem.
