Political speech with partly sporting features of US President Donald Trump in Alabama. The White House chief, with a message to the bosses of the NFL clubs (American football), does not allow the performance or dismiss the players who refuse to stand during the intonation of the anthem
"We are proud of our country, we respect our flag. Do not you want to see some NFL club owner who will say "Take that bitch son out of the field. Outside. He is fired "for someone who will show disrespect for our anthem and flag," Trump said before the Alabama attendants who, in turn, returned to chanting "USA, the United States" for presidential patriotism.
The basis of Trump's speech was the reaction of Colin Querernik, a Quarterback of San Francisco, from last season who refused to stand on the US anthem over racial issues in the country. On that occasion, he knelt on one knee, an example of expressing dissatisfaction, which was followed by his other colleagues.
"I will not stand on the anthem, and in that way I will respect the flag of the country that oppresses blacks and people of other skin color," said Coppernik last year in a period in which streets in cities, mainly in the south, were killed by African Americans .
For Trump it is unacceptable, and if a club owner decided to fire a football player that would express disregard for national marks, he will become the most popular person in the country.
The speech of the President of the United States was followed by reactions from footballers who said that Trump should be engaged in politics instead of sports."Did anyone tell Trump to stick to politics as we were told to stick to the sport," wrote Eric Ebdon on his Twitter account.
Tramp also addressed the spectators who go to the stadium, urging them to immediately become and leave the debate that they see as a football player kneeling during a hymn.
"Leave. I guarantee you that such a trend will stop. Simply assemble and exit, "Trump suggests.
