Paris Dennard: ‘The Only Political Stunt’ We Saw Was by the 49ers, When They Took a Knee, Not Pence

EXCERPT:

DENNARD: "It's the beginning of the truth and the truth is, the only political stunt that we saw was done by the San Francisco 49ers when they chose to make a political statement by taking a knee to the national anthem which many view in this country as being disrespectful to the flag. Now, what the Vice President did was say to the — 'If they are going to be disrespectful to the flag, I will not stay and participate in this event.' They did — the Vice President actually could have stayed the entire time, had the San Francisco 49ers not taken a knee. So, he didn’t know what they were going to do."
