What a stupid thing to say. That in itself deserves the suspension.

Now, it isn’t that Steele doesn’t have a point about sports being a place to escape, but her choosing this particular topic from which to discuss sports seems to fall in line with other controversial “alt-right” positions she’s held.

Like, who can forget the time Steele bashed a protest to stop immigration laws that would kick people out of the country, and literally rip parents away from their children, because said protest caused her to miss a flight? Or the time Steele claimed that the worst racism she’s received came from blacks? Steele has also used her platform to be one of the loudest voices to condemn the Movement for Black Lives as un-American.

Nevertheless, Steele recently spoke on Charlottesville, Va., and Colin Kaepernick, and I’ll give you one guess what she had to say about both.
