Rush did not imply that Trump shouldn’t have done this.

I think that's exactly what he did when he used the word "dictate." Limbaugh was inferring dictatorial behavior when he used that word, and we don't tolerate dictators in the United States.

That's why he said he was "nervous" and that he was "uncomfortable with the president of the United States being able to dictate the behavior and power of anybody. I don’t think that it is useful or helpful for any employee anywhere to be forced to do something because the government says they must," he continued."

Trump said something to the effect of don’t you wish the NFL execs would suspend or fire those sons of bitches who disrespect the flag on NFL time

Perhaps that’s in some way dictatorial. Perhaps not

If the paying public would understand what the Anthem and the flag represent they themselves could do their civic duty and dictate to the NFL they’re not going to continue past offense #1 back in August 2016.

Somebody has to dictate that disrespect for the flag will mot be tolerated or this will get way out of order

That’s just the nature of the flag -any flag

The media will get everyone to point and blame but the problem starts with the NFL putting up with this. And then the fans allowing it.

People can run around saying that we as a nation have progressed and patriotism is what anyone says it is but it’s simply not true

The flag must always be revered Kaepernick and his stupid followers have the right to move to a different country but they cannot say they are not disrespecting the flag. They do not have the right to make up their own facts

Kaepernick’s girlfriend inspired this whole mess. That’s who people are defending in their quest to be lazy football spectators
