Unless you spent Labor Day vacationing under a rock (and with how ridiculous everything has gotten who could blame you) you couldn’t help but hear about Nike making Colin Kaepernick the face of their ‘Just Do It’ campaign.
Because you know, a guy wearing pig socks who spends a lot of time on the bench because he’s really nothing special will TOTALLY sell a bunch of tennis shoes.

Social media exploded when this news hit (as much as any news can on Labor Day), and our good friend John Brennan couldn’t wait to fall all over himself and praise Kaepernick.
Colin Kaepernick drew our collective attention to the problem of continued racial injustice in America. He did so not to disrespect our flag but to give meaning to the words of the preamble of our Constitution—“in order to form a more perfect union.” Well done, Colin, well done. https://t.co/4ALyUxLjM5

Huh?
John.
He should at least admit the only reason he’s smooching Kaepernick backside is that he hopes it will irritate Trump.
Kaepernick was a one year wonder who got figured out by NFL defensive coaches and was relegated to benchwarmer status (on poor teams). In order to concoct a second act–an upper middle class Irish kid became voice for the oppressed. #falseprophet

I bet you have the same pair of socks as CK. You know, the ones with pigs wearing police hats.

We'll look at you, trying to still stay relevant.

Ain’t he cute? In an ‘old man yells at the neighborhood kids’ sort of way.
Ok John.

HA!
I guess @Kaepernick7 and @JohnBrennan don’t care about the #Injustice of @nike paying slave wages to their workers in Asia.

You know, that old guy who lost his security clearance for being a giant douche-rocket.
