Free speech is funny like that. You can do something and others can call you an SOB for it. What a time to be alive.

The president shouldn't be calling people SOBs (and to be fired) for exercising their first amendment rights.


Why not?


Because the first amendment guarantees them freedom from government censorship. The president is a part of the government, ergo the president applying any sort of pressure to prevent them from saying what they're saying is governmental censorship.

What pressure? He stated his opinion and no one has any obligation to act on it. It's not like he's calling the team owner and asking for them to be fired.

Come to think of it, with your logic wouldn't condemning white nationalists also be government censorship?
