Ahead of Super Bowl LII on Sunday, counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway defended President Donald Trump's feud with protesting NFL players who have taken a knee during the national anthem, saying "In my house and in many other households across this country we say 'you take a knee for the lord and you stand for the flag.'"
"I think that we don't have any kneelers today. We'll see what happens," she said. Conway showed support for the Philadelphia Eagles, donning a team beanie during a Sunday interview with Fox & Friends.
She defended Trump's right to "stand up for the flag," though Trump has slammed NFL players' protests, even calling on NFL owners to fire players who took a knee during the national anthem in September. "Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, out, he's fired. He's fired,'" Trump told the crowd gathered at a rally for GOP Senator Luther Strange.

Trump is having a ‘Super Bowl Party”, so much for core beliefs.
Everyone I know is not watching, and the Man that started the movement has Caved Bigly.
Oh’ please...
STFU
He caved Bigly.
There will be at least one person on his knees...Roger Goodell has been on both knees since the story first broke.
Lots of people who vowed not to watch it are watching it.
Went to pick up my wife at Target this afternoon (she's a cashier). Some news station was there, and a reporterette shoved a mike in my mouth "Will you be watching the Super Bowl today?" I answered "Oh! Is that today?" I laughed.
I doubt my response will be broadcast.
“Lots of people who vowed not to watch it are watching it.”
Than their word is Crap
No, its calling a Man on his word. He started this movement, asked people not to watch, then at the end holds a “Super Bowl Party”. That to me is a not being a man of his word.
Lots of people who vowed not to watch it are watching it.
><
You’re right. lol
Tomorrow they’ll be criticizing the watchers.
i was thinking of dressing up as Zod and then stand up on front of the players with a sign that says “KNEEL before Zod!”
The man that posted pictures of empty stadiums on Twitter, and convinced others to not watch, is now enjoying a big “Super Bowl Party”. Amazing
You could try but you couldn’t be a bigger homo.
Trump created the “Not watching” then at the very end, its “Super Bowl Party” time for him and celebrity friends. That is not being a Man of your word.
“You could try but you couldn’t be a bigger homo.”
What an intelligent response. When do you graduate junior high?
IMPEACH THE HYPOCRITE!........ There, I said it for you dumbass.........Sheesh!
