ESPN Hostess Apologizes for Racist Tweet but NOT to ‘White Supremacist’ Trump
By now it’s abundantly clear that there will be no accountability moment for the ESPN SportsCenter hostess who caused a stir by calling President Trump a white supremacist on Twitter.
Donald Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself w/ other white supremacists.

Jemele Hill – who received the praise of Colin Kaepernick himself – has issued an apology to her employer for exposing her personal feelings via social media even if her Twitter account did tout that she was working for the network.
There was no apology from Ms. Hill to President Trump for her obscenely racist comments that in a sane world, would have resulted in her being fired.
So, to address the elephant in the room … #Facts pic.twitter.com/RTrIDD87ut

Via the New York Post “Jemele Hill apologizes to ESPN for Trump tweet”:
After ESPN, the White House and anyone and everyone else in between commented on her tweet about President Trump being a “white supremacist,” Jemele Hill has come back with a statement of her own.
The “SportsCenter” co-host tweeted late Wednesday night about the “elephant in the room.”
“My comments on Twitter expressed my personal beliefs,” Hill said. “My regret is that my comments and the public way I made them painted ESPN in an unfair fight. My respect for the company and my colleagues remains unconditional.”
The network has accepted her apology and her job is safe.

Basically, ESPN has just endorsed inappropriate conduct by its employees when it comes to making outrageous racist statements against the legitimately elected POTUS.
Had a similar sentiment been expressed toward Barack Obama how long do you think that whoever uttered it would have lasted before ESPN dropped the hammer? Don’t even bother answering that question.
No wonder that the network has been hemorrhaging viewers since it made the decision to merge sports with radical leftist politics.
You can now be reasonably safe to assume that everyone at ESPN also believes that Trump is a white supremacist since Ms. Hill still has a job. The Disney Corporation which partially owns the network has nothing to add to this disgusting and divisive outburst so keep that in mind when planning any vacations.
Vintage liberal hypocrisy. It’s the coin of the realm.
