How about we start with your answering the questions I presented above? What's your position on those examples? Answer each and every one.
How about we start with first things first?
Sounds good to me

You provide proof of this alleged Trump worship that you have been attributing to me ever since the election, and we can move on from there.
The proof is right here in this thread. I've asked you for your position on several actions by Trump that myself and a majority of Americans feel are outrageous,such as his total capitulation to Putin at their Helsinki meeting. Each and every time you've ignored my simple request. Why?

Your total silence pretty much substantiates all my allegations.

And speaking of 'topics', the topic of this thread is Kaepernick. Pay attention.
Nope,Sorry. You've made it quite clear in this thread that you and your hero Trump who you obviously worship,share the exact same view on Kaepernick and the actions of NFL players and others that take a knee during the National Anthem. That being said, it clearly opens the door to ask you your position on other Trump actions.
If I must constantly repeat myself to you, then repeat I shall:

And please pay particular attention to the highlighted portion, because that really does count.

Yes, Trump and I do share the same view on Kaepernick, as do about 72% of normal Americans, last time I checked. (For what a poll is worth, at any rate.)

A slight majority of Americans say it’s never appropriate to kneel during the national anthem in protest according to a Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation poll, a sign that player protests draw persistently passionate reactions as the National Football League adopts a new policy to discourage demonstrations.
Since you're not shy about answering the Kaepernick issue,how about the others? Let me refresh your memory..... You've never once criticized anything Trump has done. Families in internment camps? Crickets. Exploding deficits? Crickets! Puerto Rico Katrina with 3000 dead? Your hero claims it was an "unsung success". Shall I go on? Bending over and totally capitulating for Putin? Not a word! Over 4000 lies since he was sworn in? Yoo hoo...Anyone home? What's your position on those issues,?
You can continue to cowardly ignore these simple questions but then don't complain about being labeled a Trump Worshiping Sycophant. You're not fooling anyone here.

Perhaps you should gobble a handful of Ritalin and begin paying attention:

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and comedian Dave Chappelle are among eight people being honored by Harvard University for their contributions to black history and culture, the university announced Thursday.
All eight recipients of the W.E.B. Du Bois Medal will be honored Oct. 11 by the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research at Harvard.
"The medal honors those who have made significant contributions to African and African-American history and culture, and more broadly, individuals who advocate for intercultural understanding and human rights in an increasingly global and interconnected world," the Hutchins Center said.
Kaepernick, formerly of the San Francisco 49ers, created a firestorm when he began kneeling during the national anthem in 2016 to protest police brutality and social injustice. He has more recently been the centerpiece of an advertising campaign by Nike.
He has donated and helped raise millions of dollars for organizations fighting social injustice, and founded the Know Your Rights Camp.

Free speech for me, but not for thee.
What does that even mean, in this context?
It means that an attempt to coerce speech is on a par with an attempt to suppress speech. What did you think it meant?

Yeah... but how does that relate to the article? Who is "coercing speech?" Who is "attempting to suppress speech?"

Reid is ripping Jenkins because he is not protesting in a manner that is satisfactory to Reed. I grant you the fact that Reed is not coercing speech in any official capacity, but merely through peer pressure and public shaming.

No one, in this instance, is suppressing speech. Just pointing out that suppression and coercion are opposite sides of the same unsavory coin.
49ers hold off late Cardinals push: Jimmy Garoppolo heats up, raises Super Bowl ceiling
The San Francisco 49ers are 8-0 on the season and this latest 28-25 win over the Arizona Cardinals (3-5-1) may be the most impressive yet. Why? Because they didn't have to rely on their top-ranked defense to squeak out the win. Instead, it was quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who tossed for 317 yards and four touchdowns in the win. With him playing at this level coupled with their defense, San Francisco isn't just looking like a perfect team, but a bonafide Super Bowl favorite. .... The Niners are still unbeaten, but it wasn't easy in Arizona. ....
Oh, Colin!!!! Where are you, now that we so desperately need you?
Although I've read plenty about him, I had never heard him speak. Considering that he seems to have had a fairly standard middle-class upbringing, I find it odd that he speaks like a hood rat.

I'm afraid dat I have to amend my previous post, y'all. He only speaks like a hood rat when it suits his agenda. My most sincere apologies, y'all.
