Team Kaepernick swung back Thursday after Vice President Mike Pence cheered the NFL’s decision to ban kneeling during the national anthem.

Mr. Pence responded to the Wednesday vote at the annual spring meeting by tweeting “#Winning,” prompting free-agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick to retweet a legal citation posted by his attorney, Mark Geragos, who added, “Winning!”

Mr. Geragos posted a section of the federal code from the Legal Information Institute prohibiting federal elected officials, including the president and vice president, from attempting to influence the hiring decisions of private employers on partisan grounds.

Mr. Geragos also tweeted a New York Times op-ed headlined, “The NFL kneels to Trump.”

All this does is further solidify Kaep’s public persona as an America-Hater, a Rabble Rouser and an unending distraction for any team. Keep digging, Kaepernick.

The NFL thinks the Rule Of Holes doesn’t apply to them...

Kaepernick’s moving into the “pathetic” stage now. Just one more racist fool who bought into the leftist narrative and was destroyed.

Ever notice how the Left suddenly gets small government, individual rights religion whenever there’s an evil Republican in the WH?

I think they should keep calling our National Anthem un-American and keep bitching about Trump and Pence. We know exactly who to avoid or give money to.

We know exactly who to avoid or give money to.Me too, they really ingratiate themselves with the millions of football (college and HS)fans in middle America, of which many are Democrats that now support Trump - great strategy....for Trump.

Oooooh—Team Kaepernick!

How impressive.

I’m sure VP Pence is losing sleep over this.
