1. Good God. He's out of his ever lovin' mind.

There's reality and then there's him.

2. Trump is clueless.

Has anyone told him most people think his comments were despicable?

Or maybe he gets his info solely from Fox.

7. If you dont think

this throws red meat to his base and drums up support... you need to step out of the echo chamber. Just being real.

11. He's preaching to a rapidly diminishing choir.

Which consisted of a substantial number of Russian bots to begin with.

6. Trump sees everything in terms of a popularity contest.

He's a demented 71 year old man that's stuck at age 12, still looking for love and approval in all the wrong places. He's unable to deal with all these major problems. He's trying to run away from his duty and responsibilities by attacking black football players, knowing his white supremacist followers will give him the praise he craves.

8. Ugh

He is just feeding his hard core thirty percenters.

9. Lots of people are talking about it, so he sees it as a "win"

He doesn't see it as a violation of his duty to protect and defend the Constitution, he doesn't see that his verbal diarrhea is reviled, revolting and rejected by the vast majority of, well, pretty much everyone except his core base. He sees that everyone is talking about what he said. The deeper issues escape him, and he gives them no thought or concern. He is The Most Shallow Man in the World.

10. Greg Popovich Nailed It

For those who don't know, Pop is the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs. NBA had media day yesterday in advance of the new season.

He said the guys was "delusional" if he thought that all those locked arms were about people standing up for the flag instead of being in defiance of him. Then he repeated "delusional".

Spot on.
