Already happening. They just played a clip of the pre game in London, the players and coaches either knelt or locked arms, both all symbols of solidarity basically telling 45 to go fuck himself.
Outside getting that fucker impeached, this is one of those times where I am less afraid of one sicko destroying our country. The ability to protest power is the cornerstone of an open society.
What 45 does not get, is his roll as a politician. He and his supporters would claim he is partaking in free speech himself. Moron cant understand, or does not care to accept, that there is a huge difference between the tone a private citizen has and the RESPONSIBILITY a person in office has.
When you are in office, there is a responsible way to disagree without vilification or scapegoating. When you are in office you are in the roll of diplomat, not protagonist.
45 has turned politics into an episode of Jerry Springer. But it is good to see sports stars telling him to go fuck himself.
Yea, I am not being polite with my words, but the sports stars are, and that is more than 45 is giving them.
45 simply cannot stand that he is not the center of the planet or universe.
