“You would think that a man who ran on a platform of pure patriotism and who spent months lecturing athletes about respecting the national anthem would at the very least know the words to the anthem,” Meyers said. “And yet Trump seemed lost as he tried to sing along to the anthem before [Monday] night’s National College Football Championship.”
