text: Well, MLB is not to be outdone. In addition to the old Take Me Out..." during the 7th inning stretch, they have added "God Bless America" as a response to 9/11 as well as the National Anthem at the start. More enforced patriotism!
  
  Sports want to wrap themselves in the flag. A little bit of militarism for the crowd when the jets fly over as well. Now Donny John has has turned it up to 11 as red meat for his followers by conflating patriotism with standing the national anthem. What DJT and many who post here miss is the fact that protesting racial inequality and police actions is about as American as you can get. When people who write "They can protest but not here" seem to be saying is - I don't want to think about it. Besides, you make a lot of money. Again, totally missing the fact that players are also Americans and are more than their sport.
  
  When has it been o.k. for the sitting POTUS to call anyone a son of a bitch for protesting? Oh - that's right - DJT can NEVER do wrong.
