Drew Brees' Instagram Message To President Trump
Instagram ^ | June 5, 2020 | Drew Brees

To @realdonaldtrump

Through my ongoing conversations with friends, teammates, and leaders in the black community, I realize this is not an issue about the American flag. It has never been. We can no longer use the flag to turn people away or distract them from the real issues that face our black communities.

We did this back in 2017, and regretfully I brought it back with my comments this week. We must stop talking about the flag and shift our attention to the real issues of systemic racial injustice, economic oppression, police brutality, and judicial & prison reform. We are at a critical juncture in our nation’s history! If not now, then when?

We as a white community need to listen and learn from the pain and suffering of our black communities. We must acknowledge the problems, identify the solutions, and then put this into action. The black community cannot do it alone. This will require all of us.

Drew Brees is such a disappointment. So long Drew....so long NFL. And I have been a fan since the Ice Bowl.

And Drew’s apology tour continues.

Drew, it will never be enough for ‘them’ no matter how many attempts at apologizing you do.

This ball player is owned by the left just like that governor in Virginia that posed in blackface. Both will now do as they are instructed. They are scared. And they are weak.

The NFL may now be forced by 80 percent of their players to go hard anti-American this season. Yes, they will try to have a season. For this reason: money.

Hopefully, 30 percent or more of the NFL’s remaining fan base can find the strength to just say no.

What he doesn’t get is the mob will not respect him either. He’s a sellout. No one will ever believe his stupid apology means anything more what he does now - playing with someone else’s balls on Sunday.

Drew Brees is a punk ass

As I have said to every Actor, Actress, Sports Player and/or Personality.... Just shut up and act or play. NOBODY wants to hear your opinions.

Hey Drew- you know why our family no longer watches football? It’s because of people like the kneelers who disrespect our flag, our country, and now because of spineless people like you that cow tow to them and encourage their disgraceful anti-Americanism by not stickiness to your principles!

I consider my problems to at least as real as anybody else’s. One of my main problems is respecting the demands of those who disrespect my country.
