Donald Trump On NFL, 'If They Don’t Stand for Anthem, I hope They Don’t Open'

Donald Trump says he's rooting for the NFL season to happen as planned -- but ONLY if the players stand for the national anthem.

Trump appeared on "Outkick the Coverage" and was asked about the challenges the NFL is facing with the COVID pandemic.

"They want to open and they want to open badly and they’ve been working with government," Trump said.

"I would say this, If they don’t stand for the national anthem, I hope they don’t open."

"But other than that I’d love to see them open and we're doing everything possible for getting them open.
