Good for them. It is good to see that there are far more good people in this country than racists, homophobes, etc. I just read an article stating that some part of their sales after the Colin Kapaernick have been up 61%. I bet that really butters realdonaldtrump 's biscuits! #Nike

It's weird, but Colin Kaepernick is a part of what's great about America. He was adopted my a middle class white family, grew up with white privilege, in spite of his humble background (about which I don't now all of the details), and was able to excel for awhile in his favorite sport, earning a substantial income. And, because of the First Amendment, in which I believe, he is still allowed to criticize the system that gave him such privilege, with impunity.

That is what makes America great. Trump would love to take that privilege away from us but he can't.
