The latest controversy sweeping the nation was not going to go unmentioned by Donald Trump.

The Republican presidential nominee made it clear where he stood on Colin Kaepernick’s refusal to stand for the national anthem before Friday night’s game in San Francisco.

“I think it’s personally not a good thing,” Trump told Seattle radio station KIRO. Then Trump gets going with a rhetorical question, but one many are asking.

“I think it’s a terrible thing, and you know, maybe he should find a country that works better for him, let him try, it’s not gonna happen.”

Did Trump mean Kaepernick who makes $126m playing a game of ball should move to another country? Yeah, I don’t think so.

After Friday’s grandstanding, Kaepernick used the tired argument that Trump is ‘openly racist’ and basically called Hillary Clinton a closet racist when questioned about his anti-American stance.

So far the defiant quarterback is sticking to his guns no matter the consequences.
