Nike Stock Drops Following Colin Kaepernick Deal

Once again President Trump is using his presidential influence NOT for the greater good.

Despite Trump’s unwanted influence, Kaepernick has a good couple weeks. He just had a win in court regarding his collusion case against the NFL.

The reality star president weighed in on Nike’s new ad campaign with Colin Kaepernick trying to sway his following against the former 49ers QB. Read on…

Colin Kaepernick Lands Nike Deal; Trump ComplainsCelebNSports247.com reports Nike unveiled a major new “Just Do It” ad campaign with Colin Kaepernick as the main face.

On Monday the famed sports brand commemorated their 30th anniversary with a new “Just Do It” campaign with Colin Kaepernick as the face.

Shortly after the news of the new “Just Do It” ad campaign President 45 wasted no time to put his unwanted influence on it.

Donald Trump took to social media saying that the Nike “Just Do It” with Colin Kaepernick campaign sends a “terrible message.”

The Daily Caller reports:

Trump feels that Nike’s endorsement of Kaepernick goes against everything when it comes to NFL players who kneel during the National Anthem.

The Prez Tweeted:

I think it’s a terrible message that they’re sending and the purpose of them doing it, maybe there’s a reason for them doing it … but I think as far as sending a message, I think it’s a terrible message and a message that shouldn’t be sent. There’s no reason for it.

Then he makes a subliminal remark we aren’t sure to say it was a threat or not? Trump admitted that Nike is a tenant in one of his NYC buildings, and says it pays him a lot of rent for the Niketown location. Though he adds, the company has the right to align itself with whomever it wants.

He adds:

It is what this country is all about, that you have certain freedoms to do things that other people think you shouldn’t do, but I personally am on a different side of it.
