Never mind Kyler Murray though

Trump bypasses the black #1 NFL draft pick to congratulate the white #2 draft pick with a history of MAGAt style tweets.

Raise your hand if you're surprised by this.

"According to the San Franciso Chronicle,”Bosa recently deleted tweets in which he called Colin Kaepernick a ‘clown,’ referred to Beyonce’s music as ‘complete trash’ and called ‘Black Panther’ the worst Marvel movie. On Thursday, the website Blacksportsonline posted threads showing Bosa following and liking accounts that feature white nationalist posts. The twitter feed @rzstprogramming showed Bosa retweeted a tweet referring to ‘crappernick.'”

hide its white nationalist sympathies, its racism.

Kyler Murray, of course, being black, was not going to get any love from the racist-in-chief. But I think even David Duke would have been more subtle about the racial component to his praise for Bosa.

Well, Mr. Bosa is about to meet some of the biggest, strongest, fastest, and toughest
black men on the planet in the NFL.

"The 49ers lost a hero and gained a zero."

I hope the Cardinals destroy the 49ers every game they play.
