Kaepernick VS. Trump: Kap Targets President in NFL Grievance
Welp, Colin Kaepernick is fighting back. And President Donald Trump is in the line of fire!
According to Yahoo Sports, it's being reported that Kaepernick's legal team will be going after not only Trump and defamatory comments that he has made about the protest, but also NFL owners like Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys.
Back in March while speaking to people in Louisville, Kentucky, Trump didn’t want to refer to Kaepernick by name, saying “your San Francisco quarterback—I’m sure nobody’s ever heard of him.” During the same speech, #45 tried to take credit for Kaepernick not getting signed.
“There was an article today (by Bleacher Report), it was reported, that NFL owners don’t want to pick him up because they don’t want to get a nasty tweet from Donald Trump,” arrogantly referring to himself in first person.
“If I remember that one I’m gonna report it to the people of Kentucky—because they like it when people actually stand for the American flag,” Trump added.
But if you have been following this story, this wasn’t the only time #45 has discussed Kaepernick.
If a player wants the privilege of making millions of dollars in the NFL,or other leagues, he or she should not be allowed to disrespect....

...our Great American Flag (or Country) and should stand for the National Anthem. If not, YOU'RE FIRED. Find something else to do!

And who can forget the famous ‘son of a b!#ch comments from Trump?
“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when someone disrespects our flag to say, `Get that son of a bitch off the field right now! Out. He’s fired! He’s fired!“
He is running the United States of America like it is an episode of The Apprentice!
But Colin Kaepernick is fighting back!
Jones may have helped Colin too with these foolish comments, when he threatened to bench any player who protests the flag. When he did, Trump was there on Twitter with the congratulatory tweet.
A big salute to Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, who will BENCH players who disrespect our Flag."Stand for Anthem or sit for game!"

To us, it's as clear as day that the NFL owners, encouraged by Donald Trump, conspired to keep Colin Kaepernick out of the NFL. Let’s hope that the legal team of Kaepernick doesn’t have a problem winning the case in the United States courtroom.
