Apparently you have not read up on the games the Eagles were playing with the White House. They requested their special visit be rescheduled during the the Singapore Summit. Do you understand that when the White House invites you over, perhaps it is you who must change your schedule to accommodate? To change the WH schedule affects hundreds or thousands of staff and security, not to mention NoKo.

White House: ‘Vast Majority’ of Philadelphia Eagles Abandoned Fans

Sorry but your info is just plain wrong. I suppose you got it from a fake news network.

Report: Nick Foles Was the Only Eagle Going to the White House

You keep saying the Eagles did not protest. Sure they did. Look at the fists.

So what, don't reschedule, a few people show up, then it is on the Eagles.

Did you read that article?

Only Nick Foles planned to go.

It was just a "game" from the beginning ...

And the end for me.

So what! If he doesn't cancel it then it isn't on him. 50% of the country would condemn the Eagles. This is the act of someone with a brittle, fragile ego who lacks self esteem.

But instead he cancels it blaming them for:

1. Kneeling in protest of our Anthem -- something they didn't do

and then when that is exposed as a lie

2. Attempting to reschedule when he isn't there. Just say no, can't do it then, we'll have to do it as scheduled, and when very few show up let the US decide who is at fault, who is insulting who.

I think 50% of us would see not showing up as another insult to our country, and again these athlete millionaires would have lost the PR battle, coming across as spoiled whiners.

Instead he is afraid of anything that would challenge his self centered concept that he is superior to everyone else. His fear that the crowd who comes to his inauguration is smaller and the those who come to his parties are fewer. In the process he reveals his deceitfulness.

Now everyone except for the most rabid Trump supporter will see this as Trump insulting the NFL, the Eagles, and their fans.

On the contrary, only the most rabid Trump hater will see what Trump did for all the Eagles' fans who came was anything but classy, honorable, respectful, and patriotic.

Perhaps the courageous Nick Foles showed up. Unfortunately the progressive, liberal left has never been tolerant of those who disagree, and Nick's career with the Eagles may be over.
