FULL TITLE: 'Maybe they shouldn’t be in the country': Trump suggests NFL players should leave the U.S. if they don't stand for the national anthem after rule change banning the controversial protest

President Donald Trump backed an NFL rule change Wednesday that bans kneeling during the national anthem and hits violators with fines.

However, the president — who instigated the new policy with his withering rebuke of players refusing to stand during the tribute to America — said the measure doesn't go far enough.

'I don’t think people should be staying in the locker rooms,' he told Fox & Friends in a pre-taped interview that aired on Thursday's program. 'You shouldn’t be playing, you shouldn’t be there. Maybe they shouldn’t be in the country.'

I’m all for them to venture to new lands and stay there.

Load the NFL kneelers on a C-5A, give them a parachute, a weapon, and drop them off in the hills of Afganistan for a few days. Let’s see how big and brave they are then. If they return, they may have more respect for the flag and national anthem.

The black racist, anti-American, anti-law enforcement, anti-military, SJW, PC PINK, perverted nfl which literally HATES the country and HATES its own, now former, fan base is already dead, it just doesn't realize it yet.

The leftist, commissioner, owners and players strangled it to death with their own hands!

We are NEVER COMING BACK, N E V E R!

The players’response only strengthens my resolve to live without football. They are making it worse.

Sounds logical to me. End the NFL... Send the anti-American players to other countries... It all works.

Maybe we should just end the NFL

Too many cucks will continue to financially support them. So that won't happen.

Thanks Morgana. What is needed is a ban on all gov't-funded sports scholarships, and a ban on gov't aid to colleges which offer them; and a ban on taxpayer funding for professional sports arenas.

“Ticket sales were down last year and those who had them wanted refunds!!!”

I know multiple die-hard Bronco fans that turned in their season tickets, and there was a line at the Bronco’s box office to do it!

“Maybe just change the name of the league. “

NFL: Negros, Felons, and Liberals.

Before Colon Cancer hit the Former Niners, season tickets options were often passed on to the heirs by wills or trusts.

Now, they can’t sell nor give away the tickets.

Most of the time there are more unoccupied seats at the games than fans.

Their paid flacks tell us that it is too hot to sit in the east side of Levi stadium.

It is amazing the economic downside 62+ million deploreables can bring down on the Trump and America haters, if we decide to do it.
