O.J. Simpson: That Colin Kaepernick Guy Really Messed Up by Not Respecting Our Flag
Look, I get that O.J. butchered two people and everything (at least according to the Fake News Media), but while I don’t like O.J., you have to admit one thing: O.J. Simpson fights for the culture war issues other people are too scared to fight for:
O.J. Simpson says he agrees with Donald Trump — Colin Kaepernick “made a mistake” taking a knee during the national anthem … and completely disrespected the American flag.
“I think Colin made a mistake,” Simpson told The Buffalo News … “I really appreciate what he was trying to say. I thought he made a bad choice in attacking the flag.”
“I grew up at a time when deacons were in the KKK. I don’t disrespect the Bible because of those guys. The flag shouldn’t be disrespected because of what cops do. The flag represents what we want America to be.”
“When he did it the first time I thought, ‘Well, you took a gamble, and I give you credit.’ But it was him continuing to do it where he made the biggest mistake.”
“I’m a firm believer of doing what you think is right, but I would always stand for the flag.”
We need more firm believers of doing what they think is right in politics. I’m going to say something that may be a little controversial: has this guy ever thought about running for office? I’m not saying O.J. Simpson should be our next President, mind you. But if he ran . . . hey, he’d be better than Hillary, amirite?
And if he did actually kill Nicole and Ron, well, that just shows that he knows how to engage in a street fight. And politics is kinda like a street fight.
Of course it would be wrong to have a murderer in the White House. But Obama droned U.S. citizens without a trial, didn’t he? How is that any different? There are a lot of killers. You think our country’s so innocent?
Again: I’m not suggesting that I would vote for O.J. Simpson to be our next President of the United States. But come on.
You have to like a guy who tells it like it is.
Whoa, wait. I just got through reading to the end of the article:
But Simpson says he doesn’t see eye-to-eye with Trump when it comes to politics.
“Somebody asked me if I’d have voted for him … Probably not, but I only know two of my friends I’d vote to be president. Some of my best, best besties I would not vote to be president. That has no bearing on it, you know?”
Doesn’t support Trump? To hell with him. Forget I ever said a good word about him.

Trump is good buddies with convicted rapist Mike Tyson (publicly defended him during his trial, called the conviction a “travesty”, and – according to Iron Mike – promised him a pardon), so he and the Juice would be like two peas in a pod.

Donald Trump has not lost his Mike Tyson vote, even after his controversial call to ban all Muslims from the United States.
Tyson, who has been vocal of his support for Trump in the past and is a Muslim himself, told TMZ on Tuesday that the comments of a ‘total and complete shutdown’ on Muslim immigration to America have not changed his views.
‘Anybody that was ever president of the United States offended some group of people or some groups of people were offended,’ Tyson said
‘He’s still ahead in the polls and he deserves a chance.’

I thought he was talking about Mr President Ford.
I know, congressman, minority leader, blah blah blah…
Did you know this about President Ford? I had no idea:
Ford was born Leslie Lynch King Jr. on July 14, 1913, at 3202 Woolworth Avenue in Omaha, Nebraska, where his parents lived with his paternal grandparents. His mother was Dorothy Ayer Gardner and his father was Leslie Lynch King Sr., a wool trader and a son of prominent banker Charles Henry King and Martha Alicia King (née Porter). Gardner separated from King just sixteen days after her son’s birth. She took her son with her to the Oak Park, Illinois, home of her sister Tannisse and brother-in-law, Clarence Haskins James. From there, she moved to the home of her parents, Levi Addison Gardner and Adele Augusta Ayer, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Gardner and King divorced in December 1913, and she gained full custody of her son. Ford’s paternal grandfather Charles Henry King paid child support until shortly before his death in 1930.
Ford later said his biological father had a history of hitting his mother. James M. Cannon, a member of the Ford administration, wrote in a biography of Ford that the separation and divorce of Ford’s parents were sparked when, a few days after Ford’s birth, Leslie King took a butcher knife and threatened to kill his wife, his infant son, and Ford’s nursemaid. Ford later told confidantes that his father had first hit his mother on their honeymoon for smiling at another man.
After two and a half years with her parents, on February 1, 1916, Gardner married Gerald Rudolff Ford, a salesman in a family-owned paint and varnish company. They then called her son Gerald Rudolff Ford Jr. The future president was never formally adopted, and did not legally change his name until December 3, 1935.

Kevin M (752a26) — 3/16/2018 @ 3:05 pmOne thing I find funny is that people on both sides pretend to be shocked that the news media isn’t perfectly objective.
In Jefferson and Adams’s day, people would have thought the idea of objective press was crazy. Each side had their own newspapers, and the faction in power directed all government printing business (which represented a substantial amount of revenue) exclusively to the publishers of the papers friendly to them. And the partisan newspapers of the era printed wild accusations, libelous hit pieces and scurrilous rumors that would make Alex Jones blush.
Because President Washington (and only President Washington) was off-limits for the harshest criticism, Jefferson-aligned papers focused their wrath on Hamilton as a proxy instead. But after Washington stepped down, it was open season on everyone.

narciso (d1f714) — 3/16/2018 @ 6:05 pmI figure the continuous antiTrumping will continue until the guy is out of office so I just try and skip as much as possible. Sadly, you all have overdone the neverTrump crap so much if the actually does do something during his tenure as president I probably won’t listen. I’ve gotten to the point of cognitive dissonance where I sometimes think I’ve gone down the rabbit hole into a hating Trump blog. Then I realize it’s the usual suspects who can’t say “good morning” without crapping on Trump in one way or the other.
I will ask this: Do all you antiTrumpers wish Hillary won instead? Can you name a democrat you would rather have occupying the Oval Office? I assume since Trump is so very bad you have a list of said democrats.
I went to Ace of Spades and couldn’t find where he dissed Patterico. I will say from my take on Patterico I will stand with him. Patterico has been nothing but a straight shooter and honest guy as far as I’m concerned so if Ace or anyone bad-mouthed him they are making a big mistake.
Rev.Hoagie (1b0402) — 3/16/2018 @ 6:07 pmThat would be like me saying: Trump supporters have overdone the pro-Trump crap so much that he if actually does something good I probably won’t listen.
I know you believe that to be already true, of course, but I can point to countless things he has done that I have praised. So if you believe that to be true you’re wrong.
But if I *did* say that you would say: AHA!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!
Yet you feel no problem about saying that you would be totally non-objective if he actually did something wrong.
Doesn’t that seem strange?
I appreciate the kind words in any event.
Patterico (115b1f) — 3/16/2018 @ 6:22 pmI could give you the link where he dissed me but at this point why bother.

Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 3/16/2018 @ 7:03 pmTrump should have never been nominated, period.
I doubt I will convince you or anyone else who thinks the same way you do, but in my view electing Trump will be worse for the country, and for the conservative cause, in the long run than electing Clinton (with a Republican congress) would have been.
There are short term advantages, certainly, to denying the Democrats the WH in 2016, but I think the longer term damage to the party (and the country) caused by Trump will outweigh them.
Suppose you had the choice between these two scenarios:
1) Trump is (barely) elected in 2016 but his unpopularity grows as people tire of his scandals and antics, and he is totally ineffective as leader (this is where we are now). The GOP suffers massive midterm losses and a two-term democratic president, with a solid Democrat congress, is elected in 2020, or
2) Clinton is (barely) elected in 2016, but unpopularity, scandal and health problems make her even less effective than post-2010 Obama; GOP retains control of congress until an effective, two-term conservative president is elected in 2020.
This is how I see the choice that was made in 2016. Of course, the future is unwritten, but I don’t believe you can elect a toxic, immoral and completely unprepared moron president without serious and negative consequences eventually catching up.
There is certainly room for disagreement, but what I’m suggesting is hardly far-fetched. If the choice is between a weak and ineffective one-term Republican followed by a strong two-term Democrat, or a weak and ineffective one-term Democrat followed by a strong two-term Republican, which would you pick?

Obamacare would have become single payer, probably Ginsberg and Kennedy would have retired already giving Hillary three seats to fill on top of Obama’s picks, there would have been a whole new global warming tax scheme added to an inflated existing one, a weaponised EPA would have killed the energy industry, gun control would have neutered the second amendment by a thousand cuts, and between an activist judiciary, the weaponised IRS, corrupted intelligence agencies, open borders and amnesty, no Republican as existing would ever be elected again.

Trump’s democratic successor WILL have it though. Trump will make your worst nightmares come true. Just wait a few years.
Dave (445e97) — 3/16/2018 @ 9:19 pmWell, they *were*.
With a democrat president to oppose, federal spending fell from 24.4% of GDP to 20.9% of GDP, and the budget deficit decreased almost every year. Non-defense discretionary spending fell to a smaller fraction of GDP than in FY2000, the last year with a budget surplus.
On the other hand, with Trump in charge, spending and the budget deficit are both heading back up. Bigly.

So you’ve already decided our party has nothing to offer and because Trump the democrats will win. The last democrat president was a half black son of a communist who came out of nowhere to “fundamentally change” America. And it did. It changed us from an Exceptional nation to a Europe 2.0 with no real direction other than more and more regulation and larger and larger government. But he was half black so he was Mr. Wonderful. I contend it was HE who created the divided hateful America we live in today, not Trump. Seems like you miss the good ole’ Hussein days, Dave.
You really don’t get how the Deep State is regurgitating its bile because Trump came on and so far won’t play ball. Our nation has been run by autocrats and bureaucrats for at least 50 years regardless which party was “in power”. They were always in power. That’s why so many of us would mumble things like: “nothing changes” or “both parties are the same” or “the GOP is just democrat lite”. Because the Deep State bureaucrats were actually running everything. So nothing did change. They still are but Trump has caused a few cracks in the wall. Or did you guys miss Hillary fixing the democrat election and trying to fix the general? Why do you think all those leftist pigs were so shocked? Somebody goofed and Trump won. All the ballot box stuffing, the dead people voting, the fake early and mail in ballots and the millions of non citizen immigrant votes gave Hillary the popular vote but some dumbass forgot it was the electoral vote that counts and stuffed the wrong ballot boxes.
BTW Patterico. My little diatribe above wasn’t with you in mind. Guess who it was?
Rev.Hoagie (1b0402) — 3/16/2018 @ 10:05 pmNot at all, Patterico. That’s the cognitive dissonance to which I referred. One may call wolf only so many times till the ear ignores to the call.
Too bad…

Nobody home in there, Hoagie. Yikes!

DCSCA (797bc0) — 3/16/2018 @ 10:26 pmYour name did come up at AoSHQ, not as part of the “Government Consensus”, rather “Washington Consensus”.
The statement by Ace, referring to Jonah Goldberg, was
Someone in the comments said you weren’t part of the DC crowd and I commented that I agreed, but that you were simpatico with them.

You are not simpatico with Erickson, Kristol, Goldberg, etc? I don’t recall you publishing any serious disagreement with that crowd, but perhaps I missed it. At any rate, the comment was not about government, it was about opinion writers.
As to OJ/Trump/Patterico, I’m surprised you are having trouble following the logic. Just imagine it said in a sarcastic voice, much like the one you were using when writing your conclusion.
Anon Y. Mous (6cc438) — 3/16/2018 @ 10:33 pmBTW, I left the thread at Ace’s early, so I didn’t catch your comments there later. I now see that you and some of the other commenters got into it about Kimberlin. You quoted a cheap shot comment directed at you, but in doing so you left out the name of the guy who actually made it (Hikaru) and left in my name (he was riffing off the comment I made about you, but unrelated to Kimberlin).
Just to be clear: I never discussed the Kimberlin thing at all in that thread, nor did I criticize you regarding anything about that whole incident. Not in that thread, nor at any other time.
I disagree with you a lot when it comes to Trump, but not so much that I feel the need to demonize everything about you. I’m on your side 100% when it comes to the Kimberlin situation.
Not sure why anyone saw the need to bring up Kimberlin in the first place, as that had nothing to do with what Ace was talking about.
