It never ends. Wrong on two levels.
_PARTISAN POLITICS - PO1 Tony Holland are you saying that it is part of the DNC platform to take a knee during the National Anthem and Part of the RNC platform to stand.
_OFFICIAL ACT According to the Supreme Court, in McDonnell V. US Government an “official act” is “a decision or action on a ‘question, matter, cause, suit, proceeding or controversy’” that “must involve a formal exercise of GOVERNMENTAL POWER that is similar in nature to a lawsuit before a court, a determination before an agency, or a hearing before a committee.”[7] In addition, the act must be “something specific and focused that is ‘pending’ or ‘may by law be brought’ before a public official.”[8] A “decision or action may include using [one’s] official position to exert pressure on another official to perform an ‘official act,’ or to advise another official, knowing or intending that such advice will form the basis for an ‘official act’ by another official.”[9]

Sir, your ducks are not in a row.

Who cares what the NFL players do? Really does it make one bit of difference? It's their right, have at it. I may not like or agree with it, but have fun, show everyone your true thoughts about our country and the system that has rewarded you so lavishly. I will also exercise my right to not watch or spend a single dime on the NFL. Simple really. Both of us are exercising our rights.

From the code cited in the article:

[begin quote]
(1) takes or withholds, or offers or threatens to take or withhold, an official act, or
(2) influences, or offers or threatens to influence, the official act of another,
[end quote]

He did neither of these things in his tweet. Another tail-chasing drill to keep the far left occupied and frothing at the mouth for a few days.
