Desperate Walker plays Race Card, scrapes bottom with Madman Trump's Faux Patriotic NFL Kneeling Outrage!!!

The following Scott Walker tweetstorm plays to his party's fears and to Walker's biggest strengths; divide and conquer, resentment, racism, and utter contempt of the 1st Amendment.

Another of Scott Walker's positive messages?

It looks like no one was buying the over-the-top blatant lying about Tony Evers and porn on a teachers school computer.

So trying to take down challenger Tony Evers a few percentage points by playing up his running mate and candidate for Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes as a symbol of Black Lives Matter is so white nationalist of him. But if it worked for Trump, why wouldn't it work for our sleepy-eyed sociopathic governor.

Scott Walker's got nothing but this now?

Yea, killing unarmed black Americans is all just so much drummed up fake outrage. Surprisingly, no ones told Walker that kneeling never had anything to do with the military?

Military Vets aren't buying this either:

As for unshakable Democratic candidate for Governor Tony Evers??

Lt. Governor Rebecca Kleefisch, facing challenger Mandela Barnes, posted this amazing head scratching nonsensical take, prompting Barnes to comment:

This was Barnes original response:

Walker and Kleefisch can take it up with Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, or are they going to just boycott Packers games?



After glancing at his twitter feed over the last couple of months, it also surreal how all he's ever bragged about is the nationally produced low unemployment numbers in our state he's taking credit for and Foxconn's chameleon-like contract. What a record, what a history.

Trump Americans shred Constitution with NFL Boycott! Not Racist?

Here are a few things we found out about Republicans during the Trump Error: They stand for nothing: 

1. Not free markets = Foxconn.
2. Not Pro-Life = Kill Health Care/Support Death Penalty/Guns.
3. Not Family Values/Religion = Voted for a Bible Thumping Sexual Predator.
4. Not Constitution = Against First Amendment Protests.

The Republican Party of Feel Good Anecdotal Values: That last point is defined below. Yes, conservatives are still obsessed with trashing NFL players protesting police violence against black Americans.

You won't believe the nationalism, the racism, the arrogant authoritarianism in Louisiana, for something that takes about one minute...before the game even starts for gods sake. NPR: 

In Louisiana, NFL Anthem Protests Threaten Saints' Tax Breaks: Manager Tony Melara, of Sarita's Grill in Denham Springs, La., said:  “We respect the flag. We stand. And we pledge allegiance. They make a lot more money than we do. Like, why do it then? They're going at it the wrong way. That's all." 

Republican State Representative Kenny Havard of St. Francisville is proposing an amendment to strip any state funding that benefits the Saints, including free rental of the venue where they play, the Superdome. 

Rep. Havar: “We're paying the Saints a lot of money to entertain us, not to get off in the weeds of political discourse. Now, they can do that, but do it on their own time. When I see a lady coming, I open the door. When I, you know, sit at the table, I take my hat off. When the national anthem plays, I stand. And those are things that are taught to you by family and parents. And that's the real issue, is the breakdown of the family unit because there's no dad in the home to pop them upside the head - son, you stand up when the national anthem - and pull your pants up. I'm sorry if it hurts people's feelings, but that's just the way it is.

Reporter: “There will be people who hear you say that and think that that's racist.”

Havard: “Well, it's not. And I'm not trying to be racist. It's not for me. It really isn't. It's about having the conversation. And somebody needs to start having the conversation.”

The issue is also now in the courts. Just last week, a Saints season ticket holder sued the team for a refund, claiming he's been damaged by players using football games as a platform for protest. Debbie Elliott, NPR News, Baton Rouge.

Scott Walker finally approves what we can or cannot protest at NFL games...or anywhere!!!

The first amendment is just too long and lacks that certain commercial appeal for profit making apparently. Unlike the Second Amendment, which is short and sweet enough for the gun industry to latch onto so they can lobby and sell guns through the NRA, “petitioning the government for a redress of grievances” doesn't even make for a good hat.

Congress shall make no law respecting … the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances

Republicans have been trying to put an end to protesting since they lost out to the anti-war movement in the '60's.

When over a million Wisconsinites, including children, protested the vilification of teachers and union busting in Act 10 back in 2011, Scott Walker didn't see it as act of "petitioning the government," he saw it was a form of "intimidation." Believe it or not, he even titled his book "Unintimidated" to make his case, characterizing protesters as out of state agitators, and comparing his stand against them to fighting ISIS.

Walker's family raised their kids to stand during the National Anthem:



Now that Trump has taken a firm nationalistic anti-First Amendment stand on protesting at NFL games, our presidential wannabee is jumping on board:

Walker wrote in a letterto NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. "But disrespecting our flag, and the men and women who have fought to protect and defend our country, is not American in the slightest."

Here's the logical response from Democratic Rep. Melissa Sargent:

Walker does have a legislature filled with anti-constitutional Republican sycophants:

And one or two "rebels:"

Trump and rabid nationalist base consumed with Flag Worship, phony Symbolism.

Like the First Amendment says, there's a time a place for free speech...

Trump on Friday said NFL players who kneel during the national anthem to protest racial justice should be fired.

"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. He is fired".

And there are preferred ways to protest now during an NFL game...thanks to a little guidance from Trump....

Is our sociopathic narcissist playing his base for suckers, or did he just forget this....

 Or that players standing for the National Anthem was strictly for propaganda purposes in the first place...never gets mentioned enough-"paid patriotism:"



Still, my conservative friend in Milwaukee just played the Christian victim card with poor guy Tim Tebow, without ever knowing anything about Colin Kaepernick:

They’re both Christian football players, and they’re both known for kneeling on the field, although for very different reasons. One grew up the son of Baptist missionaries to the Philippines. The other was baptized Methodist, confirmed Lutheran, and attended a Baptist church during college.

Tebow was home-schooled by his Christian parents, and spent his summers in the Philippines, helping with his father’s orphanage and missionary work. Kaepernick was born to a 19-year-old, single, white woman (who) was destitute and gave him up for adoption. He was raised by the Kaepernicks, a white couple from Milwaukee. His body is festooned with religious tattoos, including depictions of scrolls, a cross, praying hands, angels defeating demons, terms like “To God be the Glory,” “Heaven Sent,” “God will guide me,” Psalm 18:39 and Psalm 27:3.

But Trump would have that son of a bitch Kaepernick fired...

He's an activist and philanthropist ... the offseason Kaepernick launched a GoFundMe page to fly food and water into suffering Somalia ... He had already pledged to donate $1 million (and) proceeds of his jersey sales to charitable work. This year, Meals on Wheels announced it had received $50,000 from Kaepernick. He joined with the charitable organization 100 Suits, to pass out free suits in front of the New York State Parole office for people who have been released from prison and are looking for jobs.

But then Kaepernick began sitting/taking a knee back in 2016, protesting officer shootings of innocent black people.

Kaepernick decided to either remain seated or kneel ... in support of Black Lives Matter and to protest police violence against black people. “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

You know what happened next, right?

Kaepernick was voted the “most disliked” player in the NFL. People posted videos of them burning his jerseys. He was called “an embarrassment” and “a traitor.” He was blamed for a significant drop in NFL television ratings, with fans boycotting the NFL because of his protest. He received death threats.

Real Americans like Trump, who tout the First Amendment...well, seems pretty empty now doesn't it. Here are the Trump Tweets that breathed life into this whole mindless wedge issue in the first place:

But wait, "real Americans" angry over disrespecting the flag better check their closets...wanna talk about disrespect? Click to enlarge the real flag rules...

Packer's quarterback Aaron Rodgers offered this generally accepted level headed perspective...

LeBron James....

National Anthem singer...

Drooling Trumpian American not happy about free speech after all...



Oh, and just one more thing....
