It would seem like a patriotic, inoffensive July 4 post celebrating America on her 249th birthday and lauding the commonality we all share.
Recently retired Philadelphia Eagles great Jason Kelce took to social media Friday to declare his “love for the 4th!” Nothing wrong with that, right?
Man I love the 4th! One of the great days we all can set aside our differences in this country, and enjoy the one thing we all share in common. That we are American!
Cheers to you oh beautiful America.
But nooooo, leftists didn’t like that. How dare you praise the country that is oh so evil, that wants to imprison everyone, that is worse than Iran, that is now a Donald Trump autocracy?
Poor Kelce—the craziness came hard, and it came quick:
Almost immediately, he was ripped in the comments.
Kelce’s post came hours after President Donald Trump signed the “big, beautiful bill,” which seemed to be the catalyst for the backlash in the former NFL player’s comment section.
“Set aside differences? One party wants to feed children. The other wants to feed brown people to alligators,” one person wrote.
“Unfortunately Jason this is not real life for many. They signed the worst bill for so many Americans today just to rub it in our faces. I know it’s hard to understand, but so many will suffer,” another added.
Another user called his post “tone deaf.”
Even on the holiday commemorating our great country’s very existence, these hate-filled extremists couldn’t put aside their radical partisanship for even a minute. Gross.
Jason Kelce is eviscerated by the left after a July 4th post.

The left has abandoned all pretense: they don’t love America.

This isn’t an endorsement of Jason Kelce—his wild antics are not for everyone, and as the brother of Kansas City Chiefs star Travis, or Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, as some know him—he’s bound to take some incoming. But is it really fair to smash him over saying he loves July 4th, fireworks, and putting our differences aside for one day?
Not only is it not fair, but it shows how far the left has gone, and how much they hate the very country that gives them the ability to voice their views. Try that in Iran or North Korea, leftist keyboard warriors, and then tell us how it worked out for you.
When a prominent figure can’t even voice his enthusiasm over the 4th of July without the wailing and gnashing of teeth by progressives, it shows you just how far they’ve drifted from regular Americans who count our blessings that we live here.
Don’t take their BS, Kelce, and keep on proclaiming your love for the U.S.A., every single day. The patriots are winning, and the doomsdayers are losing, and I’m loving it.
