As you've heard by now, Nike decided to pull the sale of a Betsy Ross American flag themed sneaker this week after woke and washed up athlete Colin Kaepernick complained it is tied to racism.
But there's just one huge problem with that argument:
Democrats running for president have officially lost it.
Beto & Castro strongly imply that the Betsy Ross flag is a symbol of hatred. Do the rest of the Dems agree?

Attention Nike: The flag Colin Kaepernick told you was unacceptable on your shoes was displayed rather prominently at Barack Obama's inauguration. https://t.co/zbeXx2CFZc— Byron York (@ByronYork) July 3, 2019
.@Kaepernick7 told @Nike the #BetsyRoss flag is an offensive symbol because of its “connection to an era of slavery.”

Weird that no one had a problem with The Betsy Ross Flag when it flew over Obama’s inauguration. Now it’s not patriotic... ok got it. ?? #morons https://t.co/wkxDRZs6bM— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) July 3, 2019
Betsy Ross was and still is an American hero. Her flag was part of the birth of the greatest nation on earth. We should be eternally grateful for her service to the country.
Yeah but dont ya know Obama is cool and stuff, so calling him out on this would be racist
The Kenyanesian Usurper.
On Usurpation Day II
Socialists can never keep their stories straight, or let a day pass without being offended by something!
What an awful way to live.
Come to The Dark Side! We have MAGA! And Cookies! ;)
The America-hating socialist democrats should move to Cuba or Venezuela.
Hope this goes viral for the rest of the year.
Time to hammer them, and hammer them good.
So Obama used the racist Betsy Ross flag? This bad news for a big school district near me. Because they named one of their schools after Obama.
Now they’re going to have to rename the school, change all the letterheads, burn all the school shirts, etc. It will be expensive. But it will also be necessary.
Just a guess... and this IS just a guess but,
The Kenyan Muslim Cokehead Twink?
Its ok when RATs do it.
Huh, I didnt know Obama was a white supremacist
He would have preferred the isis flag.....
Its established beyond question that the left just makes this stuff up as they go along. Proving it is no longer necessary. Labeling people and objects as racist has gone beyond absurd.
Ah, the internet search easily turns up... an inconvenient truth of Obama’s inaugural with two giant Betsy Ross flags on display. Sweet.
We can use Google’s search engine against them. Much like the old Chinese tale of borrowing the enemy’s arrows.
Huh, I didnt know Obama was a white supremacist

A black white supremacist. The worst kind.
Betsy. Ross was an abolitionist and Quaker. Americans dont know history and lack the interest to learn.
“A black white supremacist. The worst kind.”
Black? O’Bama shares one thing with all the other presidents: A white mother.
I have always said that the first black president will be a republican. Just wait and see.
You got that right. It's not about the flag, it's about hating half of America. And besides, Chris Matthews has informed us that only ‘white’ people can be racist, so the former president is always and forever on safe ground in this matter.
It is only something to scream about if you are a liberal.
