The media has been working overtime to prove VP Pence walking out of the Colts game yesterday was a ‘stunt.’ All the while ignoring the actual stunt that’s been taking place on the field for the past year.
Unbelievable. The MSM has been more critical of VP Pence for taking a stand than they have been of players for taking a knee.

Of course. Anything to feed the narrative that somehow these bazillionaires tossing a ball around for a living are systematically oppressed. And we get it, Lefties insist they’re not kneeling for themselves but give us a break …
Bias in action: Pence walking out is a "stunt". Players taking a knee is genuine. The MSM really doesn't get it.

Ari is right, except for one part – we think the MSM gets it. They know exactly what they’re doing, they just don’t care.
Oh, and check out the epic levels of MORON on this thread:

Oh FFS.
Ari is one of the GOP's pet shandas, the Bush propagandist and master of lies. Nobody takes him seriously.

What exactly is insane about Ari’s tweet? He’s not wrong.
NFL protests were fading & barely an issue until Trump dared them. If you don’t see how divisive this is from Trump/Pence, you’re a moron.

Gosh, the name calling at the end of this tweet makes us take this guy even more seriously.
Oh wait, no it doesn’t.
Not really Ari. The players are protesting against police brutality. Why would Pence want to take a stand against that?
— Steve Clark (@steveclarkuk) October 9, 2017
That’s not what Pence took a stand against; of course anyone who believes players kneeling is about anything more than just hating on Trump would say something like that.
Oh and those tweeting that they’re concerned about Pence wasting money?
Suddenly big govt lefty types care about “taxpayer dollars” for protests lol

That’s the funniest part of all.
