Trump tweet: A spoil sport! 🏈

The weekend seems to have left a sour taste in the President's mouth 👅 with him attacking the NFL on twitter constantly on Sunday and early on Monday. Here's the latest:

🐦 If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag & Country, you will see change take place fast. Fire or suspend! NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S.

His Sunday morning tweet 🐦 referred to NFL players -- most notably former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick -- who kneel during the National Anthem in protest of police brutality. Trump had made a similar claim during a campaign rally on the Friday in Huntsville, Ala. Trump also urged the NFL fire or suspend those players.

🐦 Great solidarity for our National Anthem and for our Country. Standing with locked arms is good, kneeling is not acceptable. Bad ratings!

Apparently, this is 'How to Respect your National Anthem 101'. And since the NFL players kneeled, their ratings have dropped dramatically, according to the President.

🐦 Please to inform that the Champion Pittsburgh Penguins of the NHL will be joining me at the White House for Ceremony. Great team!

🐦➿ Donna Warren: You can boycott our anthem. WE CAN BOYCOTT YOU! NFL MAGA

🐦➿ Donna Warren: I wonder what this BRAVE American would give to stand on his OWN two legs just ONCE MORE for our Anthem? MAGA NFL

Trump retweeted a picture 📷 of a soldier with two prosthetic legs‼️

🐦 Courageous Patriots have fought and died for our great American Flag --- we MUST honor and respect it! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

🐦 Alaska, Arizona, Maine and Kentucky are big winners in the Healthcare proposal. 7 years of Repeal & Replace and some Senators not there.

The new draft (PDF) of the Health Bill began circulating Sunday night and was posted online by Cassidy on Monday. Perhaps most notably, an analysis of the bill released by Cassidy shows increases in federal funding for Alaska, Arizona and Kentucky. Those three states are also home to Senators Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky.—all crucial swing votes on the legislation.

🐦 Sports fans should never condone players that do not stand proud for their National Anthem or their Country. NFL should change policy!

🐦 Making America Safe is my number one priority. We will not admit those into our country we cannot safely vet.

The new presidential order 📋 keeps restrictions on five of those six countries — Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen — lifts restrictions on visitors from the Sudan and adds new restrictions on visitors and immigrants from Chad, North Korea and Venezuela. In a proclamation Sunday night, Trump blocked the issuance of all visas from North Korea and Syria, while blocking nearly all visas from Iran except those for students and exchange visitors. Issuance of all immigrant visas and business and tourist visas was suspended from Chad, Libya and Yemen‼️

🐦 So proud of NASCAR and its supporters and fans. They won't put up with disrespecting our Country or our Flag - they said it loud and clear!

The message praising America's foremost auto racing circuit came after widespread demonstrations at football games over the weekend, prompted by Trump's repeated calls to fire players who kneel during the national anthem. Several NASCAR team owners said over the weekend they wouldn't tolerate a similar movement in their sport.

🐦 Many people booed the players who kneeled yesterday (which was a small percentage of total). These are fans who demand respect for our Flag!

This tweet follows a remarkable Sunday during which players at games across the country locked arms, knelt and stayed in the locker room during anthem in a show of solidarity against Trump’s broadside on the issue. Several team owners also participated.

🐦 The issue of kneeling has nothing to do with race. It is about respect for our Country, Flag and National Anthem. NFL must respect this!

🐦 The White House never looked more beautiful than it did returning last night. Important meetings taking place today. Big tax cuts & reform.
