The owner of the New England Patriots said in a meeting with NFL owners, executives and players that President Trump was using public fury over football players who kneel during the national anthem as "fodder to do his mission."
In an audio recording of the private meeting, which was obtained by The New York Times, Robert Kraft said that Trump seized on the national anthem protests to spread division and anger.
"The problem we have is, we have a president who will use that as fodder to do his mission that I dont feel is in the best interests of America, Kraft, a longtime Trump supporter, said, according to the Times. "Its divisive and its horrible."

Mr. Khan, I think one of your bumpers fell off its rack and gave you a concussion.
Trump has at least 63 million American supporters, how many do you have?
AND, ...............All 63 million of us EXPECT HIM to stand up every damn day and tell it like it is on the issues of our times.
One over arching point a knot head like you SHOULD bear in mind is is that 3,141 counties in America voted for Trump while on 57 voted for your candidate.
So, We (those of us in the 3,141 counties) really don’t expect to hear a damn thing from you. So, please, shut the hell up and let him do the job 63 million of us hired him to do.
Finally, its for certain we don’t like your employees bad mouthing and disrespecting our country.........and that’s putting it mildly.
Bob, I appreciated what you did for New England football. But your ship has sailed. You allowed your talent pool to slip away. You talked players into pay cuts for the good of the team. And now you talk shit about politics.
I think its time to put the horse away and set the barn on fire.
Stockholm Syndrome.
I’ll bet he didn’t have any problem with football players kneeling for their mission.
Instead, rather than act like managers/leaders and direct their employees to behave properly and respectfully -- and gratefully -- when at work and in uniform, like ol' HRC they'd rather blame somebody else -- anybody else -- for causing them financial concern ... in this case it's President Trump!
The owners must really think they can fast-talk fans into believing the President is the cause of all of this. Blaming someone else -- anyone else -- for their failures is soooo much easier to do.
Well screw them and their ungrateful employees!
Hogg is gay?
Well, that goes along way to explain his “issues”.
Kraft is a fool. The protests spread division and anger, not the President. President Trump is merely vocalizing the frustration experienced by Americans who simply wanted to watch a football game, and instead are subjected to angry racial and unpatriotic division. Go away, Kraft, please, just go away. If you don’t have the gonads to fire those who mock America, just pack it up and leave. And may he door hit you in the tush on your way out.
... and Colin Kaepernick also used the entire league for advancing a political agenda. It just so happens that the liberal billionaire-owners who make up the league’s directors agree with Kaepernick. And I haven’t heard any dissent besides Jerry Jones’ abortive attempt to prevent The commissioner from getting that lavish contract extension. But I suspect that was something personal with JJ.
Oh yes, I remember this Globalist, open borders, DU troll, reaganaut1, very well.
I wonder why he/she/it chose to slither back here?
Boredom, I guess.
What a misnomer for a team that disrespects America—The Patriots. I was once an occasional viewer but never again. These barely literate Pima Donas should realize they are also disrespecting the many black Americans that proudly marched off to war defending and often dying for the country they receive millions by entertaining playing a game.
