Trump Is Getting Destroyed for Taking Credit for Colin Kaepernick's Free-Agency NFL Status

People aren't here for the Donald bashing the woke QB in any way.

You'd think that Donald Trump would currently be more concerned about truly figuring out health care and the FBI recently announcing its probe into possible ties between his administration and Russia. 

Well, think again.

While speaking at a rally in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday night, the controversial 45th president decided to take credit for the fact that Colin Kaepernick remains a free agent.

Trump told his rabid followers that he read an article saying NFL owners fear signing the woke quarterback partly because "they don't want to get a nasty tweet from Donald Trump. Do you believe that?"

He added that he's sharing the news with "the people of Kentucky because they like it when people actually stand for the American flag," referring to the 29-year-old Kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem last season in protest of racism and police brutality against African-Americans.

Wow. Just...wow.

And Kaepernick is the Donald's priority right now because...?

All Twitter needed was Trump's sound bite to destroy him with zero chill.

Here's his statement on Kaepernick followed by all the dragging of the president that ensued. 

  • Just what is going on in that head of his?

    People weren't standing for Trump's shots at Kaepernick at all.

  • People See Straight Through Trump's Vicious Cycle of Hate

    After all, it was going on before and during his campaign and continues well into his early presidency.

  • With everything going on, How is Taking Shots at Kaepernick one of Trump's priorities right now?

    We can't be surprised, though, can we? This is the same guy who insists on still talking about Celebrity Apprentice ratings while in the Oval Office.
