Donald Trump: Nike's Colin Kaepernick Campaign Sends 'Terrible' Message

President Donald Trump believes Nike is sending a "terrible message" by using Colin Kaepernick as the spokesman for the 30th anniversary of its "Just Do It" ad campaign.

"I think it's a terrible message. Nike is a tenant of mine. They pay a lot of rent," Trump told The Daily Caller's Vince Coglianese and Saagar Enjeti on Tuesday.

"I think it’s a terrible message that they're sending and the purpose of them doing it, maybe there's a reason for them doing it, but I think as far as sending a message, I think it’s a terrible message and a message that shouldn’t be sent," Trump added.
