Watters: The Philadelphia Eagles ‘Disrespected the Office of the Presidency’

Jesse Welcome to Watters ░░░░░░░░ The debate over kneeling ░░░░░░░░ The national anthem at ░░░░░░░░ fever pitch Many players ░░░░░░░░ the Philadelphia eagles planned ░░░░░░░░ boycott President Trump We ░░░░░░░░ our country we respect ░░░░░░░░ flag and we always ░░░░░░░░ for The national anthem ░░░░░░░░ stand to honor our ░░░░░░░░ and honor our country ░░░░░░░░ to remember the fallen ░░░░░░░░ who never made it ░░░░░░░░ home We stand to ░░░░░░░░ our love for on ░░░░░░░░ fellow citizens and our ░░░░░░░░ constitution We stand to ░░░░░░░░ tribute to the incredible ░░░░░░░░ who came before us ░░░░░░░░ the heroic sacrifices they ░░░░░░░░ And we proudly stand ░░░░░░░░ our glorious nation under ░░░░░░░░ Jesse While the president ░░░░░░░░ the high road CNN ░░░░░░░░ the low one Accusing ░░░░░░░░ president of being fake ░░░░░░░░ isn t about some ░░░░░░░░ patriotism and pageantry Real ░░░░░░░░ is about understand waght ░░░░░░░░ means for all people ░░░░░░░░ are created equal and ░░░░░░░░ the choice to stand ░░░░░░░░ or sit or even ░░░░░░░░ a football game Jesse ░░░░░░░░ was there and I ░░░░░░░░ t appreciate being lectured ░░░░░░░░ don lemon on what ░░░░░░░░ is But one went ░░░░░░░░ Suggesting Trump is a ░░░░░░░░ As a black athlete ░░░░░░░░ can t go The ░░░░░░░░ has demeaned the African ░░░░░░░░ players so much you ░░░░░░░░ t go to the ░░░░░░░░ House Jesse Two players ░░░░░░░░ me with their reaction ░░░░░░░░ sea borne and Jack ░░░░░░░░ to played for the ░░░░░░░░ eagles What do you ░░░░░░░░ about the idea that ░░░░░░░░ players can t go ░░░░░░░░ the White House I ░░░░░░░░ t like a lot ░░░░░░░░ the things the president ░░░░░░░░ either He pissed me ░░░░░░░░ But I have been ░░░░░░░░ the White House and ░░░░░░░░ will go back You ░░░░░░░░ have a conversation with ░░░░░░░░ Trump and hopefully we ░░░░░░░░ find a way to ░░░░░░░░ this gap We are ░░░░░░░░ Americans we are in ░░░░░░░░ same family Families fight ░░░░░░░░ quarrel tbowf talk about ░░░░░░░░ Jesse I don t ░░░░░░░░ why the Philadelphia eagles ░░░░░░░░ didn t take the ░░░░░░░░ to go to the ░░░░░░░░ House to have a ░░░░░░░░ with the president That ░░░░░░░░ have been the place ░░░░░░░░ do it It would ░░░░░░░░ been the perfect opportunity ░░░░░░░░ get their message across ░░░░░░░░ have parkland shooting issues ░░░░░░░░ people defend the Second ░░░░░░░░ but they don t ░░░░░░░░ to defend the First ░░░░░░░░ They are protesting It ░░░░░░░░ not about black white ░░░░░░░░ he called him a ░░░░░░░░ Racism and prejudice We ░░░░░░░░ go back and forth ░░░░░░░░ the two I don ░░░░░░░░ believe s a racist ░░░░░░░░ I m thinking is ░░░░░░░░ players could have had ░░░░░░░░ platform no bigger than ░░░░░░░░ White House to get ░░░░░░░░ message across to the ░░░░░░░░ himself Jesse I think ░░░░░░░░ disrespected the office of ░░░░░░░░ presidency It s not ░░░░░░░░ the person who occupies ░░░░░░░░ office it s about ░░░░░░░░ office itself To showboat ░░░░░░░░ say you are going ░░░░░░░░ have 60 guys there ░░░░░░░░ the night before say ░░░░░░░░ are only going to ░░░░░░░░ 6 I don t ░░░░░░░░ the details about how ░░░░░░░░ happened It was unfortunate ░░░░░░░░ find out on 6 ░░░░░░░░ were going If you ░░░░░░░░ at their leader Malcolm ░░░░░░░░ Chris long gave up ░░░░░░░░ entire year s salary ░░░░░░░░ help the kids These ░░░░░░░░ are out in the ░░░░░░░░ doing good work The ░░░░░░░░ of the matter is ░░░░░░░░ single one of those ░░░░░░░░ stood up for the ░░░░░░░░ anthem each and every ░░░░░░░░ So this is confusing ░░░░░░░░ I don t understand ░░░░░░░░ the Philadelphia eagles ball ░░░░░░░░ and Donald Trump aren ░░░░░░░░ communicating They agree on ░░░░░░░░ lot of issues But ░░░░░░░░ front of the lights ░░░░░░░░ cam rats they are ░░░░░░░░ at each other I ░░░░░░░░ asked for Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ please bring our black ░░░░░░░░ to the White House ░░░░░░░░ let s have a ░░░░░░░░ and let s heal ░░░░░░░░ nation Jesse That sounds ░░░░░░░░ a good idea The ░░░░░░░░ offered an olive Branch ░░░░░░░░ is what he said ░░░░░░░░ Trump A lot of ░░░░░░░░ in the NFL in ░░░░░░░░ but in sports leagues ░░░░░░░░ are not proud enough ░░░░░░░░ stand for our national ░░░░░░░░ I don t like ░░░░░░░░ For the league n ░░░░░░░░ they have people friend ░░░░░░░░ people they know about ░░░░░░░░ have been treated unfairly ░░░░░░░░ the system let me ░░░░░░░░ If I find and ░░░░░░░░ committee find they are ░░░░░░░░ treated then we ll ░░░░░░░░ them or at least ░░░░░░░░ them out Jesse I ░░░░░░░░ that was a great ░░░░░░░░ by the president saying ░░░░░░░░ s move Ford in ░░░░░░░░ positive way If the ░░░░░░░░ deal is suppose to ░░░░░░░░ police miss treatment of ░░░░░░░░ Americans other criminal justice ░░░░░░░░ mix treating African Americans ░░░░░░░░ me an example and ░░░░░░░░ will par done that ░░░░░░░░ There are lots of ░░░░░░░░ But both sides need ░░░░░░░░ come together to decide ░░░░░░░░ they want to get ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ have disrespect for our ░░░░░░░░ or the flag But ░░░░░░░░ have chosen to protest ░░░░░░░░ spoke to military people ░░░░░░░░ said they disagree with ░░░░░░░░ way they are doing ░░░░░░░░ And their actual message ░░░░░░░░ being lost in the ░░░░░░░░ they are going about ░░░░░░░░ They said I fought ░░░░░░░░ their right to do ░░░░░░░░ So they can do ░░░░░░░░ But come together so ░░░░░░░░ two side can get ░░░░░░░░ message across so this ░░░░░░░░ t about kneeling it ░░░░░░░░ about the social injustice ░░░░░░░░ colored people in America ░░░░░░░░ s not the kneeling ░░░░░░░░ I believe it s ░░░░░░░░ failed protest If no ░░░░░░░░ knows what usual protesting ░░░░░░░░ everyone believes you are ░░░░░░░░ the flag and the ░░░░░░░░ then your protest has ░░░░░░░░ If you are going ░░░░░░░░ talk about social justice ░░░░░░░░ it on Watters world ░░░░░░░░ it on ESPN And ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ was the right type ░░░░░░░░ place to do that ░░░░░░░░ will give you the ░░░░░░░░ word You make some ░░░░░░░░ points I wish we ░░░░░░░░ protest in front of ░░░░░░░░ police department that let ░░░░░░░░ cops off Or protest ░░░░░░░░ Capitol Hill which a ░░░░░░░░ of players are doing ░░░░░░░░ have to come together ░░░░░░░░ the end of the ░░░░░░░░ Jesse thank you for ░░░░░░░░ the voice.
