Many were quick to point out on Twitter that Trump ignored Murray, who is black, while congratulating Bosa, who is white and has previously expressed support for the president.
The No. 2 pick in the NFL draft was on President Trump's mind. By Cindy Boren Cindy Boren Reporter covering sports, with an emphasis on politics and national stories Email Bio Follow April 28 at 11:24 AM The NFL draft wasn’t far from President Trump’s mind Saturday night as he addressed a crowd in Green Bay, and his decision to laud the second overall pick, a white player who has expressed support for Trump, but not mention the No. 1 pick, who is black, has sparked criticism.
What’s the debate? Pres Trump is entitled to like a guy who shares his beliefs. You and I might not like Bosa’s views, but he’s entitled to them and Pres Trump can like him for them. Just wish Kap received that same courtesy👍🏾 https://t.co/NQp2HL2Y3j Trump probably complicated his arrival in the Bay Area, but Bosa had sought to downplay his leanings when he met with reporters who cover the Niners.
