It's especially going to hurt the NFL's efforts to expand overseas if they have a shrinking fanbase in the U.S.

Whether or not you're a fan of Trump, you have to admit that this is a brilliant strategy on his part to deflect from the poor relief efforts in Puerto Rico, the failed travel ban, the failed effort to repeal Obamacare, the proposed tax cuts for the rich, and all the other scandals going on.

Divide and conquer is much more effective than actually addressing the real problems in America.
