Teabagger Rep. Steve King: Colin Kaepernick’s Anthem Protest Is “Activism Sympathetic To ISIS” [AUDIO]

Brian Tashman reports at Right Wing Watch:

In an interview today on Newsmax, Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, denied that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has a constitutional right to refuse to stand for the National Anthem, even going so far as to accuse him of sympathizing with the terrorist group ISIS.  “I understand that he has an Islamic girlfriend that is his fiancée and that this has changed him, has taken on some different political views along the way, this is activism that is sympathetic to ISIS,” he told host Steve Malzberg. “For me, if I’m the coach, I would say, ‘You’re done. Until you take a knee and beg forgiveness from the American people, you’re not going to set foot out on this field again.’”
