    What's the line? Can Kaepernick not complain unless he gets shot?

    Maybe Trump is still allowed to complain because he actually has negative income.

    Answered questions for 18 minutes. He isn't ducking, that's for sure.

    Looking ahead: Does this story fade as we get into the week, or do the cable net bigfeet and politicians blow this mother up?

    Gotta be happy people are paying attention to him again. Or at least not focusing on the mess he made of his career. Probably a coincidence that worked out in his favor.

    As soon as Trump figures out how to spell his name, he'll tweet about this.

    I think the NFL and it's bought-and-paid for media partners will dump ice all over this story. It's a no-win for them.

    EDIT: *its* Where the hell are my copy editors?;)

    That would certainly give him more credibility.

    The stadiums and arenas I've been to, everything stops during the national anthem -- ticket scanners, medal detectors, concession stands, team store, even ushers stopping people from going up and down the aisles.
