Dear Mr. President,

Your attack on athletes choosing to go down on one knee for a song has engulfed the office of the presidency in almost as much national disrespect as during the Watergate Nixon years. Now, the American people have woken up to the fact that they need not respect their political leaders, and this is a very good thing. If this was your intention, I thank you. If it wasn’t, I thank you just the same.

Thanks to you, people realize that just maybe, the man at the top is not a role model. Perhaps they will realize that he never is.
