As the 2017 NASCAR Champions visited the White House, President Donald Trump could not resist the opportunity to put the racist players of the NFL to shame. You are going to love this.
One tremendous quality that we “deplorables” love about our President is his proud sense of patriotism. Trump’s love for our country, our national anthem, and our flag is a breath of fresh air after the last administration’s obsession with shaming America. As he recently hosted the 2017 NASCAR Champions at the White House, once again Trump demonstrated his genuine passion for an American racing tradition and at the same time put the NFL to utter shame.
According to Daily Caller, Trump gave a congratulatory speech to honor the NASCAR Cup Series champion Martin Truex, Jr. and his team during a South Lawn ceremony on Monday, May 21, 2018. In his speech, the President didn’t miss out on the opportunity to tell America why he loves NASCAR so much.
“The entire NASCAR field spent 2017 chasing 78. I’ll tell you, they chased him. I’d be watching and they were always chasing you. You won eight races including four wins in the NASCAR playoffs. Throughout the season you were in 19 top five finishes and led more than two-thousand laps. Does it get lonely being in front?” Trump asked Truex, Jr.
“Thanks to incredible speed, lightning fast pit stops, and exceptional driving, this team stood alone among NASCAR’s many contenders. Despite the 78 team success, the 2017 season was not without challenge or heartache. Team owner Barney Visser who could not be here today had health issues that kept him away from the track during the last weeks of the season. And Barney is a fantastic guy,” Trump said.
“And sadly, crew member Jim ‘Wildman’ Watson passed away just before the critical race at Kansas Speedway. With your hearts broken over the loss of a teammate, Martin, you and the guys rallied and won the race. They won it for Jim, and today Jim is up there, right up there, and he’s looking down at you and he’s very proud, very proud. So, that’s incredible, an incredible story,” Trump continued.
“The motto is never give up. I’ve heard that motto before. That’s a great motto. You don’t lose with that motto. Never giving up is the story of the 78 team. It’s the story that will forever be told in NASCAR and NASCAR’s incredible history with this team,” Trump said.
“As many of you know, NASCAR grew from the back roads of America’s south and the bright shores of Daytona Beach — incredible place, to become one of the world’s most premier and beloved sports. I love it. People love that sport. Built by names like Allison, Earnhardt, Petty, Pearson, Waltrip, this lively sport reflects our national spirit and our can-do attitude. At every NASCAR race, you will see thousands of patriotic Americans, from the grandstands to the pit stalls, proudly waving our flag and roaring with joy at the words, ‘Start your engines,’” he added.
Then, President Donald Trump revealed why he loves NASCAR so much and put the NFL and all of its national anthem kneelers to shame. “And I will tell you, one thing I know about NASCAR, they do indeed, Brian, stand for the playing of the National Anthem. Right? They do indeed. Somebody said, ‘Maybe you shouldn’t say that. That will be controversial.’ I said, ‘That’s okay. NASCAR is not going to mind it at all.’ Right, fellas? They don’t mind it at all,” Trump exclaimed, according to Whitehouse.gov.
The crowd erupted in applause and laughter as they clearly understood the double meaning of Trump’s remarks about our national anthem. To the President’s point, there were no headlines about who on the championship NASCAR team was going to kneel during the national anthem this last season. There was also no talk about who would not attend the honored visit to the White House like we see happen with NFL and other professional sports teams.
NASCAR is a great American tradition because of its close ties with our patriotic lifeblood. I could not agree more with Trump in his praise for Truex Jr.’s team and the sport itself. While many other pro sports cave to the left and their hatred of American values, NASCAR continues to stand strong.
