There is no such thing as "over" with Muller.

Muller has all the information he wants. There is nothing he can learn from Trump. But Muller can't find a crime, so he needs to set a perjury trap for Trump like he did with General Flynn.

Perhaps it is a crime to tell the NFL players to stand for the national anthem.

There was not a single Philadelphia Eagle's player that kneeled during the national Anthem this year. Falling for that hokey "national celebration" is embarrassing to anyone with an IQ greater than 80

Short of facts?

Why is it that Trump hatred tends to remove 50 points off one's IQ?

Apparently only 2 players and the mascot actually planned to visit the White House.

Just a cheesy plan to embarrass Trump prior to the NoKo Summit.

The NFL has become classless, and disrespectful to our nation.

The fans get it. Perhaps low IQ?

And you don't ask why so many football players, basketball players, etc., etc., don't want to go to the Whitehouse?

Whatever happened to democracy, representing the people? Yes, these athletes represent a complete mix of our society, but all of them are rich, every single one, and as a result they tend to be more conservative and more republican than their age and race would suggest.

You have the need to say "cheesy"? The cheesiest thing was that pathetic celebration Trump had. The only people who actually kneeled during the national anthem took place during his Whitehouse celebration.

He is an embarrassment.

The Eagles and their owner are the embarrassment -- deceptive at every turn. I'm sure the Secret Service has advised Trump never to participate with such a group of anti-American haters -- how could they protect him from an attack?

Your comment proves how the Democratic Party is the party of the rich, but not as you say "more Republican." Isn't it becoming hard for you to manipulate the facts around a false narrative? Don't the statistical facts tell us that the rich from the wealthy states are far more apt to be Liberals? And the poor working men and women are more apt to be conservative?

Representing the people? How about a fair and honest Press. Obviously these rich, coastline, millennial athletes have been influenced by negative Press, 95% of which is skewed to smear the President. Why don't you fact check some of their distortions? Why do you discard your forensics training when it comes to the media?

Have you ever looked into the so-called underlying protest movement concerning the National Anthem? Have you any idea how many lies, distortions, and deceptions are promulgated to maintain this false narrative? "White cops targeting innocent black men" has no basis in reality -- but who cares -- because nearly all professional football and basketball players have swallowed this fiction.

How do you justify all your hatred with the Lord's command to love even your enemies? And Paul's instructions to pray for our leaders?

I hear a lot of backlash against evangelical Christians, but I saw much more prayer from them concerning Obama, than I see in your hatred coming from Liberals towards Trump.

Anti American? I am pretty sure that the NFL is American (don't know of any other country to even try this sport other than Canada) and the Superbowl winners are the standard bearer of this very american sport.

My comment didn't "prove" anything. It was anecdotal so at best it illustrated the point that these are Americans who are happy with America, they have done extremely well for themselves in this country, went to college, have extremely profitable careers and are successful. If you had 80 people in a prison who were angry with the President that wouldn't besmirch the President's reputation, but the fact that all of these people don't want to be honored at the White house, that is telling.

That is insulting. Anyone who disagrees with you has been hoodwinked. Once you take that position it is no longer possible to have a reasonable conversation.

Yes I have and I disagree with what they are doing. I disagree that this is a matter of free speech because I have no issue with them saying this in a tweet or through other avenues, but I feel it makes them look like spoiled brats to be making millions of dollars playing this game and then using the platform of the NFL game to make their protest. I also have no issue with the owners not hiring these guys who protested. The idea that they can protest as long as it doesn't cost them anything is anathema. That said, this had absolutely nothing to do with that protest. It has been pointed out repeatedly that the Eagles never once had any member kneeling during the Anthem. So Trump tweeting that this is the issue is nothing but "fake news" and another example of his lies.

Hatred? Because I said he is an embarrassment? You are confusing your emotions. Ashamed of him, yes. Hate him, no. Pray for him, yes. Excuse his bad behavior and repeat his lies, no.

Let me explain this to the willfully ignorant. Of course the sport of football and the NFL is American, but you obfuscate these facts with a handful of players who disrespect our flag, our anthem, our military, our nation, and the fans who pay so much money to watch the game.

It's not that complicated. You're a smart guy. Take a few days off to figure it out.

And let me remind you that this whole movement was initiated by Nessa Diab, the very progressive and pretty Muslam radio host girlfriend of Colin Kapernick. Amazing what she has done to a formerly Christian athlete.
