President Donald Trump has fired back at weak-kneed NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell after he defended his players who kneel for the National Anthem.
“Roger Goodell of NFL just put out a statement trying to justify the total disrespect certain players show to our country. Tell them to stand!” the president wrote on Twitter.

The response follows Goodell’s statement that accused the president of  being divisive while calling his players a “force for good.”
President Trump has been feuding with athletes since he called those who kneel for the anthem, sons of bitches in a speech on Friday.
Since then, in addition to Goodell and the NBA’s Stephen Curry, he has been attacked by NBA star Lebron James and a host of other multi-millionaire left wing celebrities and athletes.
A former Democrat lawmaker went as far as to suggest more players take a knee this week.
Prediction: If they do so they will find themselves with more empty seats than they did at Thursday’s San Francisco 49ers game.
Particularly if fans listen to what the president tweeted on Sunday, where he called on fans to walk out of games if players take a knee.
If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag & Country, you will see change take place fast. Fire or suspend!
