Funny, I have yet to see a logical argument coming from you. It's been a nonstop cheering session for a president the vast majority, right and left, seem to see as a total failure. His approval rating is in the toilet.

First rule of internet debating (serious_business_cat.jpg): You’re not arguing to convince your opponent; he has a strong opinion and his mind is made up. You’re arguing to convince the lurkers. Many of them are unsure, and can be influenced by a reasoned argument.

Why does kneeling disrespect the flag? To me, if anything, kneeling is a more uncomfortable and humiliating position than standing. It doesn't show disrespect, unless one thinks that not standing or not holding one's hand over one's heart is disrespectful or unpatriotic or any other shallow BS. Or that saying the pledge of allegiance every morning by schoolchildren is normal. Or that singing the anthem before every NFL game, or other non-international sporting event, is normal. If anything, the latter two dilute the meaning of true patriotism, and the freedoms our heroes died for.

I haven't seen stuff like this except in authoritarian regimes or during major wars. Thinking like an authoritarian is nothing to be proud of, when one's country was founded by luminaries like those who wrote our Bill of Rights, especially the first amendment. It's almost shameful, 226 years later. If I had died for our Constitution, I would be terribly pissed to see people applauding uniformity of thinking a la Handsmaid's Tale. These people died so that we can be FREE.

One can argue that a football game is not the best place for politics and that's an argument that I would buy. But disrespecting the flag, that's one I don't.

Btw, those of you who are so patriotic on this thread, please don't forget to apply for a VA or military job. That's where you find some of those heroes you say you respect so much, the ones the flag stands for. Put your money where your mouth is.

Kneeling with your hand over your heart during the national anthem doesn't disrespect the flag. This is propaganda bs talk from white supremacists/racists who are jealous and angry that BLACK ATHLETES, who they view to be of inferior intelligence and genes, would dare to stand and voice a certain issue using the NFL national platform. This is coming from a veteran who has been to the sandbox.

How did your first statement apply to both candidates when you stated "he" multiple times? Here is a refresher of your post: "I'll never understand why poor Middle Americans think a rich Northeasterner gives a rat's @ss about how well off they are. If he cared about lower/middle class Americans, he wouldn't hire immigrants to work at his estates, and he would pay Americans when they do work for him instead of avoiding paying them and/or suing them.

Yes, you were trying to misrepresent what you previously stated. Yes, you did stutter.

Hey Einstein, I got news for you, no country has our best interests in mind, duh!! Before Trump took office, even the US didn't put US interests first. America first, that is what Trump says and believes. He also said recently at the UN that every country should feel the same way. Take care of yourself first. He orchestrated a bold, clear, concise, and effective speech at the UN which is why most of the media barely covered it. Russia would have preferred if Hillary won, Putin pushed Obama around and could have had his way with Hillary for at least four more years. Hillary helped Russia out tremendously with uranium. Oh wait, sorry, I should stay quiet about that, I forgot it doesn't fit with your narrative.

Since I know counting is hard, I'll break it down for you. Statement one: I'll never understand why poor Middle Americans think a rich Northeasterner gives a rat's @ss about how well off they are. Statement two (obviously specific to Trump): If he cared about lower/middle class Americans, he wouldn't hire immigrants to work at his estates, and he would pay Americans when they do work for him instead of avoiding paying them and/or suing them.

This literally is contrary to everything every US intelligence agency has said. Maybe if you got your news from somewhere besides RT and Sputnik and respected the sacrifice and hard work of our military and intelligence agencies, you'd understand that. Why do you hate America?

Your comment was clearly directed at Trump, but nice attempt to back track after your snide comment made you look foolish.

James Clapper and many in the intelligence community can't be trusted, as is clear from when he lied under oath. Not everyone has to play by the same set of rules. Putin walked all over Obama and Hillary would have let Putin do whatever he wanted for the right size donation to the Clinton Foundation.

The majority of Americans don't give a damn. Not acknowledging the national athem and the flag is disrespecting our culture and the sacrifices made by our service women and men. Taking a knee while still acknowledging the flag and the national them isn't the same thing. Yes, I would suspect that all the people out there making a big issues out of this to be potential white supremacists and racists. The reason for this kind of behavior is more like:

"STFU N-word... You're being paid millions to play a child game. You should be happy about your current situation so stfu bc you're black and should be glad that you're not in Africa..."

I don't need to go into more details about this sort of thinking. The reason for this kind of hatred is because they were taught by their predessors about white privilege, and yet they're poor uneducated people struggling to survive. Our current reality is a complete opposite of their expectations. Then, they see successful black people taking a stand on national TV about a current hot topic. The current childish behavior made by these Americans are more from their rage and jealousy that successful black people dare to voice their opinions on national TV. These people expect black successful people to be Uncle Tom house African Americans.

Do you see successful white people like Jerry Jones caring much about his players taking a knee on national TV? The majority of Americans don't care...

Clinton wouldn't have "drained the swamp" any more than Trump has. They both are are primarily interested in maintaining the status quo for their rich elite cadre. That's not what we're discussing. Well, you're discussing it, with yourself.

I'm more curious about how you justify being offended when people "disrespect the flag" by kneeling, but you personally don't respect the sacrifices that our military/intelligence community have made for our country. Do you also think poorly of veterans who were POWs, like your man-crush? Kaepernick is ten times the American you are.

Tax returns are not a requirement to become president. I don't blame him for not releasing them. Two reason. 1. With the crooked slanted dishonest media, nothing benefiting him would have happened. 2. If there was anything "bad" or illegal the IRS would have already audited him and/or someone from the IRS would have leaked it. So either way, it doesn't matter much.

Wrong. I have not been in the military, but know many family and friends who have been in the military recently or currently are.

Everyone I know, including those in the military, believe this is disrespectful. Your n=1, you do not represent the military as a whole.

It was never about disrespecting the flag. Anyone with a brain could figure that out. The disrespect angle is simply a bastardization of Kap's original message. I'm not really sure whether its being intentionally done to avoid initiating discussion about the social injustices Kap is trying to inform people about or people simply being willfully obtuse.

Look. I would like to think SDN is full of relatively intelligent people who actually do want to have a discussion, but no one can have a discussion with someone who so defensive about their platform. I say, "Kaep kneeling is meant to bring awareness and start a discussion on social injustice" but you respond, "Disrespectful millionaire who should play football and shut up." and then anyone who defends Kaepernick is just a "liberal" promoting a "dishonest media".

That's not even close to engaging a discussion, and my examples are just paraphrasing what I've been reading. If you really want to have a discussion, the let's actually discuss. I'm well aware that I'll never change your mind just like you'll never change mine. But the goal of discussion is that one side sees the other's perspective. My giving me perspective and then getting a response of "you wrong", that's not discussing, that's arguing, and arguing doesn't get anyone anywhere.

Exactly what names have I called you? I have questioned your reading comprehension (and joked about your Russian allegiances) but you keep making posts like these that just prove that point.

It appears that you are more interested in playing the victim card than having real, meaningful discussion. You have dodged or obfuscated many rational arguments and contributed none of your own, other than Trump won (true), Hillary is not trustworthy (true), and that players bringing politics into sports personally offends you. You have also demonstrated a poor understanding of what true patriotism is, as well as in-depth analysis of many other issues being discussed.

If it feels like I'm trolling you to get a rise out of you, that is partly true, but by pushing you I'm also giving you the opportunity to articulate your thoughts and opinions, and you're not exactly making the most of those chances. If you're getting frustrated or feeling like people aren't understanding you, maybe instead of getting defensive and assuming everybody else is an idiot, you should find out why that is. It could be that your ideas are just illogical or poorly thought out, but presumably you are bright enough to get into medical school, so maybe you just need to do a better job of getting your point across.

Or maybe you're just a troll, and I'm wasting my time, but as others have said, this isn't really for you, anyway, it's for everyone else reading it

You are critical of me, where are you when someone calls me "racist?" I know, silent, so I don't take anything you stated above seriously.

How does the bold text do anything other than serve as a distraction for the discussion and attempt to belittle me?

You make no attempt to understand me, which is quite obvious when you question my reading comprehension and Russian allegiances. You could make an attempt to understand the other side, but you don't seem to care since your premise is that I can't comprehend. My point in emphasizing that Trump won is that I'm not the only person who thinks this way. Not even close, most of my world view is shared my millions in this country, about the same percentage that share yours, so don't belittle it and say I'm "just illogical or poorly thought out."

Interesting that you call it the "other side," which is informative in and of itself, since most of my family share your worldview and I don't think of them as the "other side." However, unlike you, most of them actually make rational arguments that demonstrate at least some thoughtfulness on the subject (i.e, "I don't agree with Trump but he'll appoint Gorsuch to maintain the balance of the Supreme Court which is important to me.")

So, you can start making reasonable arguments that people will actually debate, or you can keep going down the current path of futility. I at least try to analyze people and arguments rationally and piecemeal, for instance, while I think Trump is an idiot and history will probably view him as one of, if not the worst US President, I can at least say that not everything he's done has been terrible. For example, Trump's stance towards North Korea is probably far more realistic than most of the prior administrations. Meanwhile, the impression I get from you is that Hillary Clinton could dive in front of a semi-truck to save a group of kindergarteners, and you'd criticize her for messing up the bumper.

So again, prove me (and others) wrong. Stop being a troll and contribute something of substance to the discussion.

North Korea- nuc war. Taxes-likely fail with tax cuts to most wealthy and a possible increase with middle class. Healthcare- failed, failed, failed. Environment- He will succesfully make it worse.
