He's got a rough road right now. A lot of things going against him. His 30-33% will vote for him even if he shot a man on 5th avenue. Sad, but true. - Michael Pachla
My parents live in Florida (they also take government money) and were big Trumpers, right up until that stunt with the bible in front of St. John's.
Now, they reject him completely, as do many of their friends. The church is the center of their social life and carries incredible importance to a lot of them. It was an offensive episode to a lot of people.

Drew Brees forced to apologize for standing during the national anthem
Can the left be anymore fascist? - sabresfan69
Is standing for the flag the same as condemning those who don't stand? Because it was the judgment of others without understanding their perspective that was out of line.

So know people aren't allowed to speak what they feel, what they think is right. But Black Rappers are allowed to sing about killing, that's alright.

No. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences for that speech.
When one mischaracterizes the reasons for or the actions of others, whether deliberately or through ignorance, the decent thing to do is apologize for doing so when one learns of one's error. I believe Drew Brees is a decent person. He made a mistake, and he owned it.

“Why is it that if you are a young black person, man, and the cops pull up behind you, you get really worried and I don't? Tim Scott (who is black. My add) has been stopped six times on Capitol Hill. I've never been stopped.,” says Sen. Lindsey Graham in South Carolina.

Cause he didn't think it was right to neal, well then I am ignorant to, because there where plenty of other platforms to use, especially being a professional athlete.

Well maybe it goes back to crime statistics. I can't tell you why, it's wrong, but a lot of things have to change.

I don't think its right to kneel either but I also think Kaepernick has the right to kneel in protest just as much as Drew Brees should have the right to voice his opinion without retribution.

If they pull off this economic recovery sooner than expected than that will trump everything else IMO. Some sectors will take years to recover but if these temporary lost jobs continue to come back going into July and August then that’s a big win for the administration. So by debate time if the economy is on the up, what can Biden and the Democrats seriously run on? I want to raise your taxes? I want to raise corporate taxes to stall growth and hiring? I want to go back to giving China everything they want so they can take us over? I want to pick up where broken Obamacare left off? I’m absolutely cringing to see Biden in a debate.
