LIBERAL LOGIC: J.J. Watt Raises $37M For Hurricane Relief – GQ Gives Kaepernick ‘Citizen If The Year’
Dear GQ — HERE is a real NFL hero. And it sure as heck ain’t Mr. Pig Socks.
In this upside-down good is bad and bad is good world that we now live in, slacktivist Colin Kaepernick, — whose claim to fame is not standing for the anthem — is showered with praise and named by GQ the ‘Citizen of the Year’, but J.J. Watt, an actual NFL player for the Houston Texans, raised millions of dollars in hurricane relief and a big ‘meh’ from GQ.
The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year launched a fund on YouCaring.com to raise money for victims of Hurricane Harvey on Aug. 26 with an initial goal of $200,000. At the time, that seemed like a sizable yet attainable goal. In hindsight, perhaps Watt (and the rest of us) underestimated humanity’s goodwill and willingness to help others in need.
Watt recently closed the fundraiser after raising an astonishing $37,097,298, which is more than 185 times his initial goal. More than 200,000 people donated, meaning Watt got as many donors as he expected dollars.
Watch how he was received by fans:
His accomplishment was immense:

The fundraiser’s progress has been accelerated by a few big-time donations from billionaires. Charles Butt, who owns the San Antonio-based supermarket chain H-E-B, donated $5 million, while Tennessee Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk donated $1 million.
A number of celebrities have contributed to the cause; new Houston Rocket Chris Paul raised $50,000, H-Town lover Drake put up $200,000 and Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon announced that his program would donate $1 million.

The slight didn’t go unnoticed.
Wear socks depicting police officers as pigs; wear Fidel Castro as a fashion statement IN MIAMI; sue NFL for collusion when gf compares owners to slave owners…
Win Citizen of the Year.
Serve in the US military…nothing. What a joke, GQ. #Kaepernick— Britt McHenry (@BrittMcHenry) November 13, 2017
JJ Watt raised $37 million for Hurricane Harvey victims. 37 MILLION! But Kaepernick refused to stand for our national anthem (a year ago) and is Citizen of the Year. Right…

It’s official — Leftism is a mental disorder. It must be.
How else can you explain revering Kaepernick and ignoring Watt?
This is a badass shirt, but guys aren’t the only ones that want to shout out THIS message.
Ladies — here’s one for you, too.
Is it just me, or is Hillary Clinton mental? In her recent, horrendous book, she blamed everyone from the moon and back for her loss in the 2016 Presidential election. She blamed Trump, hard-working Americans, sexism, self-hating women, news outlets, the ones that aren’t full of leftists, voter suppression, Russia, her own campaign staff, the DNC, campaign finance laws, the Electoral College and more. Crazy how she forgot the part that she’s a liar, she’s mental, and no one likes her.
So, rock on without her America, and get this fantastically hilarious shirt, which proclaims just how mental Hillary Clinton really is today!
And the best part? This shirt is made in the USA, printed in the USA, on an American-Made t-shirt press!
Does your grandpa go off on paltry politicians, whether they be Democrats or Republicans? Does he get misty eyed when he talks about God and Country and America’s future? And have you ever heard him scream, ‘Awww … Hell no!’ when Rosie O’Donnell starts yapping on television? If you answered yes to one, or all of the above, then your gramps will love Doug Giles’ latest book, My Grandpa Is A Patriotic Badass.
Don’t be fooled by the title — this ain’t just for Grandpa.
The Snowflake Generation — and the rest of America — needs a good ol’ dose of ‘Grandpa wisdom’.
Especially if that Grandpa is Doug Giles.
You’ll love My Grandpa Is A Patriotic Badass just as much as Grandpa will.
