Kaepernick metastasized

Deroy Murdock: Nike steps on its own shoelaces in latest Kaepernick fiasco 
. . . "As for Nike, shame on this corporate giant for caving into this loudmouth. Nike should have ignored Kaepernick and sold these shoes to the millions of Americans who love this country, rather than knuckle under to the rants of this solitary anti-American, tattoo-encrusted loser.
"The only person to escape favorably from this needless mess is Gov. Doug Ducey, R-Ariz.
“ 'Words cannot express my disappointment at this terrible decision,” Ducey said today via Twitter. ”I am embarrassed for Nike. Nike is an iconic American brand and American company. This country, our system of government and free enterprise have allowed them to prosper and flourish.” . . .

California praises the Nike decision to cancel the shoe. But you already knew that, didn't you?

Outrage for Profit – NIKE Pulls “Betsy Ross” Sneaker…
. . . "Having followed politics, economic and multinational corporate interests related to politics and U.S. policy, something about these NIKE moves just doesn’t pass the proverbial sniff test.  
"The purpose of hiring Colin Kaepernick as the multi-million face of the brand was not accidental.  The entire executive suite would be involved in the original decision and launch of the “face of Nike”.  The social justice executives made a purposeful decision to leverage political controversy as part of their brand image and business model." . . .
