Kellyanne Conway: 'It's not a big ask' for NFL players to either stand during anthem, or go home to
Just days after President Trump mocked NFL players for kneeling during the national anthem, top White House aide Kellyanne Conway told "Fox News Sunday" that high-profile athletes who want to protest should, effectively, go home.
NFL players again demonstrated during the anthem last week as the league began the 2018 preseason. Some players, like Robert Quinn of the Miami Dolphins, and the Philadelphia Eagles’ Malcolm Jenkins and De’Vante Bausby, raised their fists in the air during the anthem, while others knelt.
"The president made very clear that he believes it’s not a big ask to have people stand for the flag during the national anthem at football games and elsewhere --- and that separately if these professional athletes want to go back into their communities or anywhere that they want, where they have considerable platforms and in most cases, then they should go and make their voices heard there," Conway said.
While NFL players cite racial injustice and police misconduct as the reasons for their protests, Conway claimed that Trump has, in fact, helped minority communities on the whole.

LOL!
innocent people. But they haven't stopped doing it yet, have they, KKKelly?
And BTW, 'a big ask' is corporate-speak borne out of management seminars and motivational speeches.
I've had managers say "My ask of you is..." instead of talking like an actual human being...
