Yuck. I've just read up on it but I'm not getting my hands dirty by posting a link. Bunch of silly children being hailed as champions over a load of nonsense and now yet more mind-numbing Trump tweets about it. No thanks. It's hardly the biggest story of the week Alf, it's painful trash journalism at its worst.
Google this if you want folks but I all but guarantee it will ruin your day and lower your faith in western politics even further. |

Those rich white boys were taunting a Native American. And their rich parents hired lawyers and publicists and media "experts"...
So the main focus of this story is twofold: 1) No one cares about Native Americans... what claim have they got on the USA anyway? and 2) So long as you've got enough money, we can spin your ridiculous racist, entitled, abhorrent self to look what passes for normal.

I'm not even saying that they're "villains" but they're daft kids who were being immature and disrespectful... they should be being hauled in by their school and told that... told to apologize... and that should pretty much be the end of it. It is indeed their parents and other high-profile adults who have decided to laud them as champions and created this circus. |

Trump is a major part of the story, as they're wearing MAGA hats and he's been tweeting about it constantly and is the reason it's gained mass media attention? If they weren't wearing MAGA hats the video wouldn't have gone viral in the first place. Have YOU been following the story, Alf? If you have how can you think it's not a Trump story?

Of course, the mainstream media hate him, and they're the headlines you're gonna see. But the only link to Trump in this story is that he looks to be proved right when he says that the media is just fake news.

The fact that the kids are wearing MAGA hats is a major focus and the main reason that the video went viral at all. MAGA hats / the entire MAGA slogan and campaign are inextricably linked with Trump's presidency. It's a Trump story, there's just no way around that. |

I'm pretty sure the kid in the middle and his pal with the phone have escaped from a 1st division football crowd though
