Tomi Lahren Says Kaepernick is a 'Disgrace' to America Over Betsy Ross Nike Shoe
Conservative pundit Tomi Lahren is upset over Nike's Betsy Ross shoe disaster ... but only because Nike kowtowed to Colin Kaepernick, who she believes is a "disgrace to this country."
Fresh off her recent engagement, Lahren was out in NYC promoting her new book, "Never Play Dead: How the Truth Makes You Unstoppable."
The Fox News host called Kaepernick a "spokes cry-baby" and is shocked that he's "offended and oppressed" by a shoe.
On Monday, it was reported that Kaepernick privately forced Nike to nix their shoes because of the flag on the back.
The special edition Air Max 1 Quick Strike Fourth of July trainer features the The Betsy Ross flag, and the circle of 13 stars has been connected to groups with racist ideologies, as well as a connection to slavery.
After scrapping the kicks, Nike said released a statement saying, "based on concerns that it could unintentionally offend and detract from the nation's patriotic holiday."
Many have praised Kaepernick for his actions, but Lahren firmly believes the social justice warrior is a "disgraced, washed up quarterback," adding that he "single handedly divided this country and the sports world."
She believes Nike is "making a big mistake" by allowing Kaepernick to dictate what product they sell, but she's not surprised.
"They endorse him whole-heartedly," Lahren said. She also believes Americans are "done with Nike."
Lahren has a lot of hate for Kaepernick, but she has a lot of love for her fiancé after recently getting engaged to boyfriend Brandon Fricke.
She hasn't revealed any plans yet, but we're going to take a shot in the dark and guess that Kaepernick won't be invited to the wedding.
