Source: Brooks Kraft / Getty In today’s edition of “the President is trippin’”, Donald Trump went out of his way to congratulate the NFL Draft’s number two pick Nick Bosa without even acknowledging number one pick, Heisman Trophy winning Black man Kyler Murray . In true Trump form, he took to Twitter to be willfully shady, writing: Congratulations to Nick Bosa on being picked number two in the NFL Draft. You will be a great player for years to come, maybe one of the best. Big Talent! San Francisco will embrace you but most importantly, always stay true to yourself. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2019 The petty tweet caused an uproar on social media with folks pointing out that Murray — who also made history as the only player ever to be drafted in the first round of the NFL and MLB — should be congratulated as well. You do realize that another player went #1 overall in the draft, right ahead of Bosa, right? His name is Kyler Murray pic.twitter.com/xiOkXTMm3Y — Ed Krassenstein (@EdKrassen) April 27, 2019 Wow.. it’s been a minute since we had a president.. anyway… Congratulations to Kyler Murray on being picked number ONE in the NFL Draft. You will be a great player for years to come, maybe one of the best. Big Talent! Arizona will embrace you. — Wale (@Wale) April 27, 2019 Even Time magazine called the President out on his pettiness. Kyler Murray, a black man, was the number one NFL draft pick. Trump congratulated the number two pick instead https://t.co/CwxCeVERkj — TIME (@TIME) April 27, 2019 Just to refresh your memory, Nick Bosa is the same guy that called Colin Kaepernick a “clown”  for kneeling during the National Anthem. TBH, do we expect anything more from Trump? Nah. But congrats to Kyler Murray for making history!
