Whatever someone’s reasons might be for kneeling during the National Anthem, one thing is certain – it is NOT a patriotic form of protest.
In fact, as President Trump has pointed out, it’s the exact opposite.
Even if you think this country’s got problems, a true patriot doesn’t crap on the flag and other symbols of our nation as a means of fixing them.
On Tuesday, Trump did the haters one better.
He reminded everyone how, during the 2012 Olympic Games in London, world class sprinter Usian Bolt, who isn’t even American, halted an interview to stand at attention when he heard the American National Anthem playing.
Even Usain Bolt from Jamaica, one of the greatest runners and athletes of all time, showed RESPECT for our National Anthem! 🇺🇸🇯🇲 pic.twitter.com/zkenuAP9RS

Kind of makes our NFL kneelers look like petulant children not getting their way.
