Mike Pence went way out of his way to get offended.

Well considering the cost of it, yes I would. That he did leave, planned it out, does make it even more of a waste & a foolish one at that.
And you think it would have been a story had he stayed?

Honestly, I would expect this kind of behavior from Trump. I'm a little bit disappointed in Pence because I thought he had more integrity than to stoop to Trump's level of political posturing.
Comparable to being called into the oval office to kill a fly. A test of loyality.

I think I would rather pay the rich dudes "trickle downs" directly to the little guys here rather than give another dime to them.
Isn't that the definition of socialism?

He was in Vegas to make comments, flew to Indy for the game, then flew back west to L.A. for a fundraiser. And I suppose a multi-billionaire like Trump has paid more than his share of the taxes over his lifetime that it doesn't matter.
He propably got more money from the state in subsidies than he ever paid in taxes.

I can question whatever I want, the bowing of the knee makes them appear as slaves, stand up like men for something or just hang out in the little boys room.

I'm sure they'll be upset by your opinion of the choices the made organizing this peaceful protest.

I am a veteran and even I dont agree with the kneeling like a slave before the nation, thats messed up. I can disagree because I am just as free as these pawns to disagree with how they are doing something, they were tax payer supported, and receive tax exemptions, so taxpayers should be able speak on it.

Trump was lying about the NFL's tax exempt status. Don't fall for it.

Oh, ok. I thought we were made at the people who looked like slaves kneeling on the field but now we're expanding that to the owners. It's hard to keep up sometimes.
Whatever excuse it takes to rationalize the anger at black people being able to peacefully protest in public in a way some white people don't like.

Is it legal for a Potus to use taxpayers money to help with his 2020 re-election campaign?
Or to create a campaign fundraising PR stunt? Remember that Trump immediately sent out an e-mail begging for donations right after Pence followed Trump's orders to leave the game after the anthem.

Seems to who? The players are being quiet and respectful during the national anthem. What more do you want?

Their heads on a spike, as like as not.

That is what I mean, he has used $250,000 of government money create a publicity stunt to raise money for his own presidential campaign.

Yep. Pence is now one of those paid protesters you hear so much about from alt-right news sources.
