He goes from sliming a Patriot who doesn't see eye to eye with him, to making more threats to a nation with a leader who is as (but not more) insane and narcissistic than he, himself is, to basically trying to control the NFL and who watches/plays in their games.
it's all about loyalty to
HIM...DJT. He could give a rat's ass about patriotism or doing the right thing for this country. It's all about him being the PRESIDENT and demanding respect. Back in July when McCain left his hospital bed to go vote on the health bill, Trump, so cockily sure that McCain was going to vote HIS way, tweeted this:
But now that McCain showed his real patriotism and is trying to make a stand, voting the way he was elected to vote...non-partisan...Trump tweeted this:

Democrats are laughingly saying that McCain had a "moment of courage." Tell that to the people of Arizona who were deceived. 116% increase!

Then 5 min. later, on to more serious tweets: (in his feeble mind)

Roger Goodell of NFL just put out a statement trying to justify the total disrespect certain players show to our country.Tell them to stand!
3:25 PM - 23 Sep 2017
Then a few hours later, after listening to a speech by the Foreign Minister of N.K. he tweeted this..

Just heard Foreign Minister of North Korea speak at U.N. If he echoes thoughts of Little Rocket Man, they won't be around much longer!
8:08 PM - 23 Sep 2017
Then after a few hours of nappy time for the big baby...he tweeted this...trying to dictate who/what we watch on TV. ( Good luck with that, Dotard. Most "Patriots" would choose any NFL player over a war-mongering idiot like you.)

If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag & Country, you will see change take place fast. Fire or suspend!
3:44 AM - 24 Sep 2017
Then after a quick trip to the powder room to dump the Big Macs and such that he ate the day before, he continues with his tweets...trying to hint that people aren't watching NFL games as much because of HIS disdain with those who aren't "respecting the flag"

...NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S.
4:13 AM - 24 Sep 2017
BE PROUD, cons...you voted for him...you elected him. And if we aren't all blown up by the crazy from N. Korea, the Dotard will destroy this country from the inside...like he's been trying to do since before he was elected.
Why would anyone call HIM a patriot? How dare he talk about the flag when his actions...playing footsie with Pootie Poot, showing his 'might' by threatening a lunatic and not accomplishing anything he has said he will do, are anything but Patriotic.
BTW...it appears his threats are ringing in deaf ears...more and more NFL players are taking a stance. Not because they disrespect HIM, but because they respect the constitution and their rights...and won't bow to the guy who obviously wants a dictatorship, with himself being the dictator. Flag, be damned!! It's an object. He's messing with people's lives.
I don't partake in watching any football other than the Cornhuskers, but I plan to become an avid NFL fan.
