In for chuck todd. Welcome to mtp daily. The president seems to be reveling in a divisive culture war of his own making turning the nfl into a literal political football. This at a moment where you might normally expect a president to be more focused on, say, getting his Health Care Agenda through congress or figuring how to get more aid to puerto rico, officials warn of a humanitarian crisis and plead for additional federal resources. We will get to those major issues in a moment. Theres no escaping the fact that this country elected a pop culture president who rode a wave of cultural backlash to the white house. They didnt elect somebody with policy chops on health care or somebody with government experience handling disaster relief. They elected a president who seems to have a zest for the kind of culture war thats ignited when he calls for a boycott of the nfl, unless it fires the s. O. B. S, as he calls them, who kneeled during the National Anthem to protest Police Brutality again
