So this is what it sounds like when a politician has taken time to consider, assess and understand why NFL players have chosen to protest police brutality. This is what happens when you don’t grandstand, or use NFL players as bait for the intolerant. Some call this leadership. https://t.co/GHHeVmj3oQ
