He’s a loyal Communist.
I don’t think Mr. Kaepernick is a “loyal communist” at all, he’s just playing an angle and doing a schtick.
Football skills are often fleeting, and unfortunately for Kaepernick, he just isn’t the star he was just a few years ago.
The unamerican, anti-cop story keeps people’s interest in him, and makes people want to tune in or pay to watch him play, if just to boo him.
Controversy sells tickets, when the players don’t have the excellence to compete at the very highest level anymore.
