After Months Of Silence Shep Smith Just Dropped Shocking Announcement About President Trump
Fox News host Shepard Smith issued a stern rebuke Monday of President Donald Trump's
feedback of the NFL's national anthem protest, asserting the protests have nothing to do
with the anthem itself and contending Trump has been utilizing the issue to encourage
"red meat" to his base.
Smith said, "It's very clear that for his base, this is the red meat of all red
meat. Because they're able to reframe this. They're able to say, 'Oh, they're attacking
the national anthem, they're attacking the troops, they're attacking the flag.'"
He added, "None of which they're doing. They're not doing any of that. They're
upset about racial injustice in the country and they're upset about the things that
the president has said, and yet he's able to turn it around for his base."
He at that point blamed Trump for deliberately abusing the national anthem protest to divert
Americans from his "struggling health care legislation and North Korea's ongoing aggression."
Numerous conservatives debate the contention that the criminal justice system is one-sided
against minorities. They additionally discover blame with the medium by which dissenters
have communicated their frighten for the indicated bad form.
"You have the right to protest Trump tmrw. But aren't there better ways than kneeling
before the flag soldiers died to defend?" Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., wrote on Twitter on
Saturday.
Brandon Morse, a supporter of the conservative site RedState, resounded this opinion in a
segment distributed a week ago.
"If players wish to engage in activism off the field, then that's great. They can use
their platform to voice whatever opinion they wish. But when we're there to watch football,
hear about football, and talk about football, the last thing we want to hear are your opinions
on why you think the police are racist," he wrote.
This level-headed discussion comes in the midst of a preparing debate originating from
comments President Donald Trump made amid a rally Friday in support of Alabama senatorial
competitor Luther Strange.
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects the
flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b—- off the field right now. Out. He's fired. He's
fired!'" Trump said.
That comment ended up activating enormous reaction, with players and team owners over
the NFL mounting a joint push to dissent the national anthem as one.
A survey directed by the Remington Research Group following Trump's comments on the
song of anthem protest found a 64 percent greater part of Americans trust "NFL players
should stand and be respectful during the national anthem."
