Steven Seagal slams NFL players who kneel during national anthem
Steven Seagal bashed NFL players who took a knee during the national anthem.
I believe in free speech, I believe that everyones entitled to their own opinion, but I dont agree that they should hold the United States of America or the world hostage by taking a venue where people are tuning in to watch a football game and imposing their political views, Seagal said during a Wednesday appearance on ITVs Good Morning Britain.
Seagal, speaking from Moscow sporting glasses and black robes, took it as an affront to the American flag.
I think its outrageous, I think its a joke, its disgusting, said Seagal, who last year became a Russian citizen.
I respect the American flag. I myself have risked my life countless times for the American flag and I dont understand or agree with this kind of behavior. I think its an outrage.
And of courseSeagal also defended Trump, who he said was being attacked by a ton of enemies within.
We have these Democrats that have this whole other agenda to kind of when I say Democrats its not just the Democrats, but there are this whole group of left of Obama-ites and people that feel they should overthrow Trump, and any decisions he makes, anything he tries to do, he gets blocked often from the enemies within, so its very difficult for him to do anything, Seagal said.
Irony is dead these days.Seagal also defended Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been accused of meddling in last years U.S. election.
Lets be really honest. Every country is involved in espionage. We all spy on each other, Seagal said. For anyone to think Vladimir Putin had anything to do with fixing the elections or that the Russians even have that kind of technology is stupid.
