A father tells me his son was asked by the school principal to remove this jersey during a patriotic-themed football game after people complained. Dad, a registered Democrat, says his son complied but felt humiliated. @HarnettCoSchool says it supports expression not disruptions



My kids know to say "My daddy is a First Amendment lawyer. Call him."



I absolutely loathe Trump and think he shouldn’t be anywhere near the presidency. I also love freedom. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that jersey. The school system should be ashamed.
