You could argue he was blackballed from the NFL.

But, I’m mainly referring to Trump calling them sons of bitches who should be fired.

I still question why many view him as a role model.

Saying/doing stupid things (or extremely unpopular things like kneeling for the anthem) doesn't mean you won't get fired - and that's not a 1st violation. And Trump can express his opinions on the matter all he wants, as long as his Justice Dept doesn't take action, which it didn't, it's still not a violation of the 1st. The first protects the government from prosecuting you for your speech (along with freedom of religion, assembly, press and petition of the government.) You know this, so why do you keep spewing untruths?

I’m saying Trump is against the NFL players exercising their free speech.
 
Another Republican President wrecking the economy. Who would have thought.

"Currently, the nation's level of debt is the highest level since shortly after World War II, according to the CBO. The federal debt is projected to equal 78% of the gross domestic product by the end of the year. At the end of 2007, federal debt stood at 35% of GDP.
The CBO predicts that federal debt "would reach 92 percent of GDP by the end of the next decade and 144 percent by 2049," which would be the highest level of debt in the nation's history."

I wouldn't even say that. I think he disagrees with their speech and thinks it is stupid.

Someone can say stupid things I disagree with, to the point where I think they should be fired. I can also defend their right to say it. Those can both be true at the same time.

He wasn't calling for them to be jailed.

I agree. Calling them sons of bitches is what took it over the top and shouldn't be in the POTUSA's agenda. This guy is the most powerful man in America and still gets involved in petty shit every day because of his own megalomania.

No he's not. He never used the police powers of the government to be used against them for saying things he disagrees with. Freedom of speech does not grant you immunity from any consequences of your speech from private actors as well as all criticism. Trump is as free to voice his opinion as the next person.

Be careful what you wish for. If you think a New York liberal Zionist is bad, what happens when Americans elect a real racist? It will happen in our lifetime. Example. A lot of the left felt disappointed with Obama's two terms. They felt they didn't get enough of their progressive plans achieved. Over time they've moved farther left and started backing more extreme candidates like Sanders and Warren. I expect the same will happen on the right. More extreme is needed for us to achieve our goals. Trump is soft and sold us out. It's our only option now.
