Ted Cruz ripped Barack Obama after he defended Colin Kaepernick’s decision to “exercise his constitutional right” and sit during the national anthem. When asked about Kaepernick, Cruz told TMZ on Tuesday that  “it’s sad when you see rich, spoiled athletes that don’t recognize what an incredible blessing this country is.” “I gotta say, I was disappointed to see President Obama stand with Kaepernick and say, ‘That’s right. Disrespect the flag.’ That’s not the job of the president.
