President Donald Trump weighed in on the controversy after Drew Brees said he would not disrespect the American Flag.
The president tweeted the New Orleans Saints’ quarterback should have stuck to his original stance that created a firestorm and should not have apologized for his statement.
Brees defended the flag when asked during an interview with Yahoo Finance about the kneeling protests that have taken place at football games over the years, insisting it was a sign of “disrespect.”
