Then Trump got in the middle of a situation that had nothing to do with him, players responded, and now look where we are.

Trump is the master of deflecting. He continues to talk about the NFL.  Why? Because it keeps you entertained while he goes after his true agenda.

Trump should've kept his mouth shut but he didn't. The NFL shouldn't have responded but they did.

Very few did it last year because very few players were protesting. It was easy to ignore. Now it's nonstop attention directed to the players. Whether you believe that Trump's fault or the player's, it doesn't matter to many people. 

Stop pretending like Trump has some secret agenda here. He said what a lot off people agree with. He's not making people feel this way. He's just bring attention to it.
