Trumps Wants NFL Owners to Fire Players Who Protest “Get that son of a b*tch off the field right now.”

Published

This past Friday evening at a rally for Alabama Republican Senate candidate Luther Strange, Donald Trump, aka #45, stated that team owners should fire all players that taking a knee or participate in another form of protest during the national anthem.
In reference to former San Francisco 49er Colin Kaepernick, Trump went on to say that NFL owners should respond by saying, “Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, he’s fired. He’s fired!!”
“For a week, (that owner would) be the most popular person in this country. Because that’s a total disrespect of our heritage. That’s a total disrespect for everything we stand for.”
Last year, Colin Kaepernick drew attention when he refused to stand for “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the beginning of the game.
“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick stated August 2016 to NFL media outlets.
Following Trump’s comments, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell slammed Trump’s criticism of the NFL players protesting. Goodell stated,
“The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture. There is no better example than the amazing response from our clubs and players to the terrible natural disasters we’ve experienced over the last month. Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.”
However, Trump didn’t stop there, he tweeted to uninvite NBA champion, Stephen Curry. This comes a day after Curry stated on Friday that he didn’t want to take part in the traditional White House visit that league champions make.
So basically Trump uninvited someone who already said they weren’t coming…smart.
By Saturday afternoon, athletes and entertainers alike were over it and began to speak out. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Chris Paul, John Legend and Stevie Wonder, to name a few, responded to Trump’s remark. James tweeted that Trump is a “bum”.
U bum @StephenCurry30 already said he ain't going! So therefore ain't no invite. Going to White House was a great honor until you showed up!

Even NFL owners spoke out criticizing Trump’s remarks including 49ers CEO Jed York calling his comments “callous and offensive” and “contradictory to what this great country stands for,”
Today, at the start of the first NFL game, members of the Baltimore Ravens and Jacksonville Jaguars sent a powerful message when the majority of their players, including Ravens Coach John Harbaugh, linking arms and a number of others took a knee.
This includes Ravens Hall of Famer Ray Lewis and Jaguars owner Shahid Khan who donated to Trump’s inaugural committee. Khan is the second owner to join the protest after Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam stood on the field and locked arms with players, military personnel and first responders in Week 1 of the 2017 season opener.
After almost a year in office, Trump has finally done something positive, he appears to have united NFL players and owners as well as given someone the courage to flash a light in front of Ray Lewis so that he could finally escape the Sunken Place.

In a more recent Live, Ray explained the incident that led to his whole wig catching on fire: an unfortunate smoking accident. “It just, like, lit on fire when I tried to light the cigarette,” he recounted. “So I get to trying to snatch the wig off. B***h, the fire goes to my f*****g shirt, to my feet, to my legs, to my back. It’s a fire everywhere, it’s a fire in the whole room.”

Of course the internet trolled him in a disgusting display of ableism and heartlessness. Comments like “Rolling Ray should have stopped, dropped, and rolled” and “karma’s a b***h” had social media conflicted in its feelings about his accident. His sensation comes from his harsh and, often, below-the-belt reads (just last month he told Yung Miami to “dig (sic) up” her dead baby father. However, the criticism didn’t stop him from responding on Twitter.
I miss y’all 🥺! See y’all soon, if this what Karma feels like she should’ve came harder because I’m alive while others still dead. God loves me 😍! Imma bounce back

Rolling Ray might be problematic as all get-out, but we do not tolerate ableism here. We wish him well as he heals.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Getting Divorced, Report Says
Published

January 6, 2021
In a story published Tuesday evening, Page Six is reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced, with the two already in settlement talks. The news comes after the couple spent the holiday season separately – Kanye at his ranch outside Cody, Wyoming, Kim and the kids with her famous family in southern California.
A source close to Kardashian was quoted saying, “Kim got Kanye to go up there so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done.” Kardashian, 40, and West, 43, are said to be splitting because of marital problems directly related to Kanye’s very public mental health struggles.

For several years the rapper’s various antics have caused fans to worry. After coming out as a Trump supporter, West then announced his own 2020 presidential bid under a new political party: the Birthday Party. At a campaign rally in South Carolina, he was seen rambling, debating individual audience members, and at times, crying. In various interviews, he has rambled on almost incoherently, and his tweetstorms are now infamous.
For her part, Kim has always supported her husband and has openly discussed the difficulties of their marriage. Back in June, she shared on social media, “Anyone who has [bipolar disorder] or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand… People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual (has) to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.”

It appears she has finally reached her limit in the union with the unnamed source saying, “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy s**t, and she’s just had enough of it.”
Separately, a source close to Kanye alleges the rapper is sick of his wife and her family, which might have some truth to it since he has tweeted some pretty nasty things about them in the past. “I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Warldolf [sic] for ‘prison reform,’” he said in a now-deleted July tweet. Recently, he hasn’t been featured on his wife’s Instagram and has largely remained out of the public eye.

With the news yet to be confirmed, the “divorce is imminent” reports are just rumors for now. We’ll be following the news as more information comes out.
