In the span of about 12 hours, President Donald Trump decided to call the mothers of NFL players who kneel during the pregame national anthem "bitches," called for a boycott of the NFL because it doesn't immediately fire said protesters, decried new safety rules that outlaw things such as helmet-to-helmet hits in the league (and presumably college, high school and Pop Warner, as well), and then disinvited the NBA champion Golden State Warriors from visiting the White House because star Stephen Curry said he, himself, is against the team going. Whatever, sports is intertwined in American society, and Trump has found some low-hanging fruit here for his base to gulp down.
