7:09 am
arm in arm with those teammates on sunday, and ben joins us from pikesvle, maryland. good morning, mr. watson. how are you doing, my friend? >> good morning, mr. strahan. i'm doing well. >> we saw you on the field yesterday, standing arm in arm with your teammates. take us into the locr room before the game. what was that moment like before you walked out on the fid? >> really i'll take you back to friday. we were in london. we didn't really know about the president's comments. once that kind of filtered out and guys saw it on social media, there was a tremendous amount of emotion, a tremendous amount of hurt. we felt as many others did that this was a direct attack on our brotherhood. obviously the name calling is something that we don't stand fo but even to imply that we don't have the right to express ourselves in that way, whether you agree or not, is something that we took to heart. it was an emotional time. chapel that morning was emotional as guys talked about what they wanted to do. wanting to respect our country and show love for our countr but also wanting to respond in solidarity. and so it kind of was organic. we got on the field, some guys kneeled, some guys decided to
7:10 am
kneel thatidn't before. other guys locked arms. i locked arms and i also pointed to the ses because i really believe that the lord wi really have to have his hand on us when it ces to reconciling our differences. >> we know ie thn ystpaaiou you di't agree with colin kaepnick kneeling during the national anthem, but as you say, you locked arms with your teammates in support of thos who didecide to kneel. in the wake of president's comments, have your feelings changed at all? well, initially last year when colin first kneeled i said if i was able to play -- because i tore my achilles -- if i was able to play, that i wouldn't be kneeling. but i support him in what he decided to do. i haven't kneeled but the reasons why he kneeled, the police brutality, the cessive force, as he said, the oppression of people of color, those are all concerns of mine and have been before colin decided to kneel and have
7:11 am
beenor other people in our country as well. he just decided to do his protesting that way. my feelings have not changed about those issues. i'm still very concerned about those issues. i still have conversations in the locker room about those issues. i still speak and write about those issues. i think at we saw last sunday, yesterday, was really an -- a response, an emotional response, you know, to the words of president trump. those words really cut deep on a number of levels for a lot of us, and not just guys in the locker room but guys outside. i think what we saw, the influx and the increase in guys protesting, while many of them are concerned about those issues, rightfully so, part of that -- part of what we saw yesterday was a direct response to the president's comments. >> ben, we really appreciate you spending some time with us. we know you just got off a flight from london yesterday s we really appreciate your time. thank u so much. okay, michael. thanks. let's get a view from the white house right now. our senior white house correspondent cecilia vega is here. you're reporting white house officials are saying it was not an off the cuff comment by the president. this was planned out.
7:12 am
i guess my big question is why? after the last couple of weeks he got praise about the hurricanes. reaching a deal with democrats on the hurricane. why throw outhis hand grenade now? >> i should say not entirely off the cuff. he did have nfl written in prepared remarks in that speech in alama. he did go a lile bit further -- i shouldn't say a little bit. he went further than what was in those written remarks. but george, look, multiple people i have spoken to inside this adminisation firmly believe that at the end of this debate america will be on the predent's side in his notion that players should take a stand during the national anthem. they think that in the end he's going to come out, ty're going to come out in full supporof this. but look, this is a president who has a history of throwing out flammatory remarks, right? to often distract from controversies that he'dealing with. health care on the bubble right now. he was down there in alabama in a race, that as candidate, he is endorsing, may or may not lose, right? so there's that. i've also got to tell you what i'm hearing inside the white house they are saying and we've heard the president himself say
7:13 am
this is not abourace. and i have got to say, this is so much bigger than the president versus the players. people in this country are going to feel completely against this notion that this is not about race. >> if the presidencomes out and says this is not about race, trouble. ittle like saying i'm >> when it comes tsensitive issues like this, past presidents have done their best to put out the flame, not fan the flame, not throw gasine on it. many pointed out that president trump's language, s.o.b., referring to nfl players who peacefully protest racial injustice, s.o.b., that language far stronger than what the presidt said about white supremacists in charlottesville. where let's not forget, a young woman, heather heyer, was killed, matt. >> it's interesting. two things donald trump is forgetting. i think he has a responsibility on the other thing. the first thing, organized sports is a lot like the military. it's brotherhood and sisterhood that the bond is with the people that are on the team
7:14 am
together against something, a common enemy. so when he attacks them, they bind together just like it happens in the military. the other thing, robin, today is the 60th anniversary of the little rock nine, the folks that desegregated central high school in little rock. we've come long wawe still haveg way to go. thpresident has an incredible loyal following, and if he takes that power that he has with his loyal following and ings them along to a place that actually brings the country together, the highest int of his presidency is when he did things that unified e country during the hurricanes and on the debt ceiling and on finding the funding for that. it was his highest point of his presidency. he's diverted again to this divisive language that's not going to benefit him in the short term. >> and ry back into this conversation. so what do you think happens next in the league and for professional athletes in general? when i say professiona athletes, i don't st mean football. he's talking abo basketball, steph curry and all these other things.
7:15 am
what happens? general? what do you think should happen? >> a couple of things he. first, in talking to some of empowerment after president trump's comments. there was anger, but there was also the sense of, hey, now we have a platform. this is one of the very unique times that the nfl management council and the players are on the same team. they are unified. protests, pro different forms. we'll have to see where t line is on that one. but the interesting thing here is, you know, cecilia mentioned the point that many people would feel like americans would be on for protestors, this is about so mu more than just making the statement about injustice. this is about trying to get somebody to seek to understand what they are talking about. so when the president, i think, is thinking about sides, i wonder if there was a desire to really understand why people are taking a knee. i think when that happens, you might see some change. >> and when colin kaepernick first took the knee, he wanted to start a conversation. looks like that conversation is
7:16 am
full blown. not ending any time soon. the president's coming out of this fight with the nfl facing another big week of challenges. our new abc news "washington post" poll shows 39% approve of the president's job performance, the lowest of any president at this pointn his first term. in the wake of his rocket man rhetoric against north korea, 62% do not trust president trump to act responsibly dealing with that situation. let's get more o that from our chief global affairs correspondent, martha raddat martha, one of the big questions on north korea, is this escalating war of words making a real war more likely? >> reporter: well, george, we have never seen exchanges like this between a u.s. president and a north korean leader. the name calling and threats of alilati annihilation, certainly makes the possibility of military tion seem more likely. you had those b-1 bombers flying further north off the coast of the peninsula plan u.s. war
7:17 am
planes have flown in more than two decades. donald trump responded this weekend by saying that little rocket man won't be around much loer if he follows through on the threats. when you make those kinds of statements, george, you've got to be prepared to act on them. >> martha, in another symbolic act, the psident adding north korea to his new travel ban just issuedast night, a new somewhat tougher travel ban. >> it's the third try at the travel ban. the second expired suay, legalil be argued before the supreme court next month. the latest one as you said, addesome non-muslim countries like north korea, but also calls for indefinitely banning travel, not just that 90-day suspension for most people from iran, libya, syria yemen, somalia, chad and north korea. george. >> martha raddatz, thanks very much. all right, let's get now to ginger for the latest on hurricane maria and how it will affect the east coast. ginger? >> still watching maria far off theast coast. looking a little weaker. because it's hitome of the upwelling or colderater that

kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice. this weekend, he saw his message and his means of conveying it command the tention of the nation and his president. >> woun't you love to see one of these nflwners, when somebody disrespects our flag to say, get that son of a [ muted ] off the field right now. >> reporter: unsigned by any nfl team, colin kaepernick himself could be found not on the field where he said he wants to be, telling a columnist last week, i'm ready right now, working ou >> do i think kaepernick is better than some of these starting quarterbacks in this league? solutely. should he be on a roster in my opinion? absolutely. >> reporter: instead he could be found here, in cyberspace re-tweeting a host of images o players and others who support him including military widows. as if in response to negative reaction, he said last year that he anticipated. >> you're going to have that backlash for trying to fight for

7:35 am
you know? we sat down in the lobby of the team hotel right before -- on game day, before their last preseason game against the chargers. and we were down in san diego, and we just talked about our own perspectives of, you know, how things were going with our country, you know, and my feeling toward the anthem and the flag were very different from his just because of our experiences and background and what we've been through and what we experienced. so, you know, we were trying t be sensitive to each other, and listen first, you know, and just sort of understand where the othe person is coming from. we kind of came to a middle grnd through that conversation. and, you know, i believe that's something that needs to happen a little bit more nodays in our country. there's a hell of a lot of shouting and hate and not a lot of listening and, you know, reasonable talk. >> a good example of you two coming from opposing sides so to speak, but finding some
7:36 am
compromise there, and havin a dialogue and a productive discussion. i know thayou don't agree with kneeling. you stand, fmer green beret. what did you make of what we saw in the nfl yesterday and in otheplaces as well? >> i mean, it was very interesting. it hurts every time i see that. it hurts -- it hurteally bad yesterday, probably more than anything. i have thoht -- you know, what was interesting it seemed like what alejandro villanueva was doing in pittsburgh who was an army ranger with three combat deployments, the rest of the team stayed in the locker room and he came out on the field and stood for the anthem, it was almost like he was protesting and he was standing for the anthem, which was really interesting to see, you know. i'm just afraid that a lot of it yesterday was more we're protesting donald trump's statements, and i think the
7:37 am
anthem itself and that flag, it doesn't represent the president, it represents 350 million americans. it's the american flag and our national anthem. so it almost -- it almost felt like in some ways if you wer standing at atntion and facing the flagt's like you were agreeing with those statements that president trump made. i don't -- i don't like that. i don't like that that is what it fellike yesterday. that really concerns me. >> that'what some people are struggling with. really quick, kaepernick hasn't- we haven't heard from him. 's retweeted some. have you spoken to him at all recently? >> u no, not recently. i spoke to him earlier this year and it a tough position for m. it's a tough position for some of these -- honestly, for some of the league owners. i know that people may disagree with that, but iyou look at a lot of them yesterday they were down on the field embracing
7:38 am
their team, standing alongside, you know, locking arms with their players. i look at it much more of like i believe -- i don't think he's necessarily black balled. i think thsituation is everything comes down to money. it's ausiness, and if you could hire the st qualified employee at your, you know, if you are a business owner, but you knew or you feared you may lose a large amount of your clientele, even if this person was more qualifiedhan anybody, would you hirehat person? i think that's more where that fear is coming from. i don't know, things through this last week, there may be more of a ift and an opportunity of bringing him on board. 'll see what happens. >> we'll see what happens. nate, thank you very much for your perspective. truly appreciate it. thank you, nate. >> thoughtful conversationight there,nd you think this is uncharted territory for colin kaepernick and the whole nfl. >> it really is, but i think if there's ever a chance for colin
7:39 am
