I assumed the flag he's desecrating was the bow?

no, the flag + shirt are the hypocrisy that defines the party. the straw is the bow that lets you know that they are just dumb people in general.

either way...mommy issues for sure.

McCarthy said he has used the same PowerPoint presentation each year since his first as the Green Bay Packers coach in 2006. Before the Packers' exhibition opener - this year it was before the Family Night practice, McCarthy said - players are taught the national anthem's meaning. They learn about its connection with sports, why it has been played before kickoffs and tip-offs and first pitches and puck drops since World War II.

jesus christ. He's like a cosplay of your racist uncle on facebook and he makes six million dollars a goddamn year. No wonder the state of Wisconsin is perpetually fully erect for FAT MIKE.

Then it is revealed that FAT MIKE gives a yearly powerpoint presentation on THE ANTHEM and THE FLAG and thus secures himself as the fattest, dumbest, worstest coach in the NFL. Which is obviously saying something.

Jane Meyer (brilliant investigative jourlaist who has been CRUSHING the Koch Bro et al dark moneymen scene) has a terrifying profile of Mike Pence. He's a total Koch puppet and also extremely religious (except when he gets bribed with campaign money) and incompetent

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2...resident-pence

It's long but we'll worth the read. Some choice quotes:

Quote:

On Election Night, the dissonance between Trump’s populist supporters and Pence’s billionaire sponsors was quietly evident. When Trump gave his acceptance speech, in the ballroom of the Hilton Hotel in midtown Manhattan, he vowed to serve “the forgotten men and women of our country,” and promised to “rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools, and hospitals.” Upstairs, in a room reserved for Party élites, several of the richest and most conservative donors, all of whom support drastic reductions in government spending, were celebrating. Doug Deason, a Texas businessman and a political donor, recalled to me, “It was amazing. In the V.I.P. reception area, there was an even more V.I.P. room, and I counted at least eight or nine billionaires

Even Bannon is worried

Quote:

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, a Democrat from Rhode Island, who has accused the Kochs of buying undue influence, particularly on environmental policy—Koch Industries has a long history of pollution—is less enthusiastic about their alliance with Pence. “If Pence were to become President for any reason, the government would be run by the Koch brothers—period. He’s been their tool for years,” he said. Bannon is equally alarmed at the prospect of a Pence Presidency. He told me, “I’m concerned he’d be a President that the Kochs would own.”

Quote:

Trump began to appoint an extraordinary number of officials with ties to the Kochs and to Pence, especially in positions that affected Koch Industries financially, such as those dealing with regulatory, environmental, and fiscal policy. Short, who a few months earlier had tried to enlist the Kochs to stop Trump, joined the White House as its director of legislative affairs. Scott Pruitt, the militantly anti-regulatory attorney general of Oklahoma, who had been heavily supported by the Kochs, was appointed director of the Environmental Protection Agency. Pruitt, in turn, placed Patrick Traylor, a lawyer for Koch Industries and other fossil-fuel companies, in charge of the E.P.A.’s enforcement of key anti-pollution laws. As the Times has reported, a document called “A Roadmap to Repeal,” written by Koch operatives, has guided the E.P.A.’s reversal of Obama Administration clean-air and climate regulations. Don McGahn, who had done legal work for Freedom Partners, became White House counsel. Betsy DeVos, a billionaire heiress, who had been a major member of the Kochs’ donor network and a supporter of Pence, was named Secretary of Education. The new director of the C.I.A. was Mike Pompeo, the congressman who represented Charles Koch’s district, in Wichita, Kansas; before Pompeo ran for office, the Kochs had invested in his aerospace business. Pompeo, the former transition-team member said, “wasn’t even on Trump’s radar, but he was brought in to meet him and got appointed, like, the next day.” A recent analysis by the Checks & Balances Project found that sixteen high-ranking officials in the Trump White House had ties to the Kochs. The pattern continued among lower-level political appointees, including in Pence’s office, which was stocked with Koch alumni. Pence reportedly consulted with Charles Koch before hiring his speechwriter, Stephen Ford, who previously worked at Freedom Partners.
Senator Whitehouse, the Rhode Island Democrat, believes that the Kochs “will stick one hundred of their own people into the government—and Trump will never notice.”

How many elected GOP officials at state or federal level don't have some tie to the Koch's? They are mainstream GOP these days, no?

They have $90,000,000,000 dollars. Half a percent of their wealth is $1,800,000,000 per presidential cycle.

But yeah, money is speech. Gotta give everyone a chance to be heard!

****ing republicans are wrong about absolutey everything and are straight up horrible people. It is no coincidence the people ruining our country are white baby boomers, AKA the undisputed WOAT generation.

Maybe if he spent less time worrying about respecting MURICA and more time figuring out what to do when you have 4th and short and Godgers is your QB, the Packers would have more Lombardi Trophies.
