People Dragged Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones For Kneeling 'Before' The National Anthem

And they destroyed Trump for supporting the move.

The Dallas Cowboys joined many other teams in the NFL by kneeling yesterday. However, "America's Team" locked arms and knelt before the anthem prior to the Cowboys' Monday Night Football road game against the Arizona Cardinals last night.

That combined with the fact that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones joined the team on the field for that gesture had many people questioning his sincerity behind the stance. Not President Trump, though, as he tweeted in support of the Cowboys' move.

That being said, people let Jones and his Cowboys know just that, calling him "phony" and the kneeling nothing more than a "photo op" with these tweets below.
