He shouldn't have done that either. They are doing it on NFL time with the implied consent of the owners.

Trump speaks a lot on knee-jerk reaction rather than laws or principles.

Wrong conclusion on your part Clocker, the owners never implied anything of the sort, NOR the sponsors who pay outlandishly for advertising, NOR the fans who paid big bucks to watch football live on THEIR time.

It's implied consent if they let it happen with nary a word nor action. That's what "implied consent" means.

Wiki:

Quote:

Implied consent is consent which is not expressly granted by a person, but rather implicitly granted by a person's actions and the facts and circumstances of a particular situation (or in some cases, by a person's silence or inaction).

What did the 49ers end up doing? What stand did Jerry Jones take? What pressure was put upon the sponsors to have the NFL stop the bleeding?....Your argument is a nothing-burger and you can eat that empty calorie rhetoric all day long, if you wish. Anyone who thinks like you do in this regard, got their asses kicked, lost loyalty, viewers and above all, respect...BTW, Thanks for the stupefying anal lecture on what "implied consent" means....

I'm more worried that extreme left hate groups such an ANTIFA can get away with violence against Trump supporters and no one gives a damn.

I don't care if people hold signs on either side, or do non-violent confrontations.

Just wait a few more weeks and you'll see ANTIFA disappear into thin air....Mark my words, they won't exist anymore....Take that anyway you wish.

I think the simplicity of the message is what is tripping up the left. Trump has firmly planted his political flag in American soil, and the left has no choice but to look un-American to be different.

His policies are rather simple. Tax cuts. Jobs. America first. Reduce govt regulation. Security. Who actually doesn't want that? How do you fight that and not look un-American?

How long can a business afford to operate in the red?

It's a great story and you want to ruin it with facts?

Give the guy a chance. Trump said that he will eliminate the national debt in 8 years. On the job training takes a while, you know.

Well I was referring to free speech. Freedom is costly.

Directly related to the number of nukes it has.
Trump is already on top of that.
