The One Thing I Can’t Tolerate is Intolerance: Herschel Walker Edition

 
Heisman Trophy Winner Herschel Walker

NFL great Herschel Walker was one of the early Trump supporters out of the gate but now he says he is losing speaking gigs by anti-Trumpers who are blackballing him.

Maybe I’m not paying attention but I can’t remember any people with left-leaning views being blackballed from public discourse.

At the risk of being super obvious, tolerance and freedom of speech don’t mean anything if you’re not willing to extend them to everybody — people you applaud as well as people you detest.

    You’re probably not old enough to remember Joe McCarthy, J. Edgar Hoover, or Red Channels.

    Good point … I was thinking of recent history.
