Kyrgios wears “F— Donald Trump” shirt following win over Nadal

January 9, 2017 Ricky Rapid reaction 658

Nick Kyrgios may have made another enemy on Monday. But he may have made more than a few friends, as well.

Following his 4-3 2-4 4-3 4-3 4-3 Fast4 format win over Rafael Nadal in Sydney, Kyrgios wore a shirt depicting United States President-elect Donald Trump in devil horns with the statement “F— Donald Trump” written below.

“I didn’t think the level was going to be that high, but I don’t think Rafa knows any other way than to go out there and give 100 percent,” the controversial Australian commented. “We weren’t taking it easy at all, so I’m going to take great confidence from that.”

But it was his wardrobe while making those comments that was the story.

Asked why he was wearing the shirt, Kyrgios said the reason was self-explanatory.

    • Nothing we didn’t know was coming prior to inauguration but now playing out (see article below)… including a man in the oval office who reacts to (biased) news on tv but is not into reading newspapers for anything not about himself, books, or seek broadly for advice among long standing professionals in a broad range of government departments.

      Perhaps he is a genius who can come up with all the right decisions all by himself, in a moment, and based on a few minutes of watching tv outlets such as Fox?

      Second half of the article:
      http://www.newyorker.com/news/benjamin-wallace-wells/a-dangerously-isolated-president

      The President’s isolation runs deeper than that. As the confusion around the immigration ban made clear, the vast government he oversees has little input on his actions. In an interview this week, Trump said that he reads the Times, the New York Post, and the Washington Post each day, but he seems to scan them as an actor does, for reviews of his own performance. His campaign made clear that he was not interested in the findings of scientists, social scientists, or the American government. Trump’s transition has alienated him from the American public. Gallup found on Friday that fifty per cent of Americans disapproved of Trump’s performance, the highest disapproval rating on record for any American President this early in his term.

      In normal times, an Administration this isolated and divorced from public opinion would seem to be fatally weak. The argument made by the President’s first week is that these conditions, combined with the general assent of a Republican-controlled Congress, might in fact create the opposite situation, freeing him to do whatever he wants.

      At times this past week, the theatre of the Administration has seemed to be as large as the Oval Office; at others, it has seemed smaller still, about the size of the President’s own head. “If Chicago doesn’t fix the horrible ‘carnage’ going on . . . I will send in the Feds!” Trump tweeted on Tuesday evening. In fact, a large team from the Department of Justice had recently been in Chicago, where it delivered an indictment of the excesses of the Chicago Police Department, connecting them to the collapse of trust between residents and officers, which in turn enabled a rise in crime.

      But that report hadn’t prompted the President’s tweet. What had? It turned out that Bill O’Reilly’s Fox News show had just aired a segment on crime in Chicago. The President had seen something that moved him on a news program, and then he had reacted. The tweet was one of the least significant Presidential gestures of the past week. But it served as prelude for some of the darker ones. At times, the only figure in the room may be Trump himself, with the blue glow of his television screen.

  5. For WhiteLies…

    This is a real Nazism.

    “Steve Bannon: ‘We’re going to war in the South China Sea … no doubt’

    The United States and China will fight a war within the next 10 years over islands in the South China Sea, and “there’s no doubt about that”. At the same time, the US will be in another “major” war in the Middle East.

    Those are the views – nine months ago at least – of one of the most powerful men in Donald Trump’s administration, Steve Bannon, the former head of far-right news website Breitbart who is now chief strategist at the White House.”

    But WhiteLies dont give a s… about casualties in the Middle East.For you is greater the crime when emails are lost.

    Mr Hitler, Goebbels, Göring and Ribentrop would be proud of you.

    What a hypocrite.

    1. Do not forget Ukraine. Only days into Trump’s presidency Russian-backed separatists scaled up attacks. Not a coincidence.

  7. Alison hodge i have no doubt that you are an amazing woman, but no one really cares about what brian blessed thinks or say’s, he made that comment on october 2016.
    And they american people rejected hollywood, the dishonest liberal media & the corrupt democratic party.
    Because they were concerned about the future of their children, grandchildren & country. And they elected a man(Donald Trump) who they trust & know would make america prosperous again, safe again & great again.
    And if u are an american you should be proud & i hope u give him a chance okay! Because i know he would do more for they american people than they incompetent barrack obama or CROOKED hillary could do in their lifetime.

    Americans are far more optimistic about their economic future since Trump’s election as president.

Stanley everyone has a right to a voice no matter who they are, whether thats Brian Blessed, Ashley Judd, Meryl Streep, Nick Kyrigios, they are all entitled to an opinion, OK some are not the most bright or articulate, but the one thing they have in common is caring about the world we live in, and many of DTs policies leave alot to be desired, you seem quite blinded about whats going on in the world https://youtu.be/9FnO3igOkOk

    U.S. Military Probing More Possible Civilian Deaths In Yemen Raid

    he U.S. military said on Wednesday it was looking into whether more civilians were killed in a raid on al Qaeda in Yemen on the weekend, in the first operation authorized by President Donald Trump as commander in chief.

    U.S. Navy SEAL William “Ryan” Owens was killed in the raid on a branch of al Qaeda, also known as AQAP, in al Bayda province, which the Pentagon said also killed 14 militants. However, medics at the scene said about 30 people, including 10 women and children, were killed.

    U.S. Central Command said in a statement that an investigating team had “concluded regrettably that civilian non-combatants were likely killed” during Sunday’s raid. It said children may have been among the casualties.

  16. It may only take 3.5% of the population to topple a dictator – with civil resistance

    Historical studies suggest that it takes 3.5% of a population engaged in sustained nonviolent resistance to topple brutal dictatorships. If that can be true in Chile under Gen Pinochet and Serbia under Milosevic, a few million Americans could prevent their elected government from adopting inhumane, unfair, destructive or oppressive policies – should such drastic measures ever be needed.

    A short list of topics to study up on regarding Putin:

    –Moscow apt. bombings
    –Nord-Ost theatre seige
    –Beslan school seige

    Vladimir Putin, war criminal
    The Russian leader has a long record of inhumanity.

    Russia’s ruthless bombing of Syria’s civilian population and targets has been termed criminal by various Western leaders and human rights organizations, prompting U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power to ask her Russian counterpart: “Is there no act of barbarism against civilians, no execution of a child, that gets under your skin? That just creeps you out a little bit? Is there nothing you will not lie about or justify?”

    United States has been particularly reluctant to sign treaties addressing the “laws of war”. It has refused to sign The Declaration on the Prohibition of the Use of Thermo-Nuclear Weapons (1961); The Resolution on the Non-Use of Force in International Relations and Permanent Ban on the Use of Nuclear Weapons (1972); The Resolution on the Definition of Aggression (1974); Protocols Additional to the 1949 Geneva Convention (1977); and the Declaration on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons(1989).1
    Equally disturbing was the U.S. refusal to sign the Convention on Rights of the Child, introduced into the United Nations General assembly on November 20, 1989 and subsequently ratified by 191 countries.
    The first use of atomic weapons against human beings occurred on August 6-9 1945, when the United States incinerated the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, killing an estimated 110,000 Japanese citizens and injuring another 130,000. By 1950 another 230,000 died from injuries and radiation. Earlier in 1945 two fire bombing raids on Tokyo killed 140,000 citizens and injured a million more.
    Since World War II the US has bombed twenty-three nations. [2001 figures] Author William Blum notes:

  19. Alison I hope we can have a cordial conversation, I think you misunderstood my earlier comment I didn’t say he(brian blessed) and others you mentioned didn’t have the right to voice their concerns even though I disagree with them & you as well.
    I simply said they American people rejected their worldviews and elected Donald trump as the president of the USA, the Republicans have the majority in the house, in the Senate, in the legislative chambers and they have 33 governors out of the 50 States in the USA.
    The American people spoke loud and clear during the election and Donald trump was partly responsible for the majority they do have.
    Am a black man who supports Donald J. Trump because I believe he loves his country and he will fix the broken system’s & disastrous deals that are affecting the American people, the economy etc.
    I would like to ask you some questions-
    (1) Could you name some of Donald trump’s policies that you disagree with?
    (2) Why do you think Donald trump is a racist bigot and the worst kind? You also included me so.
    (3) Why do you think am a racist bigot as well?
