Actor, martial artist, and classic 90s meme Steven Seagal definitely does not appreciate how NFL players are protesting the national anthem.

Seagal, who recently became a Russian citizen, popped back into the news on Wednesday when he gave an interview with Good Morning Britain live from Moscow.

When asked to weigh in with his thoughts about players taking a knee during the anthem, he said:

"I think it's outrageous, I think it's a joke, it's disgusting. I respect the American flag. I myself have risked my life countless times for the American flag and I don't understand or agree with this kind of behavior. I think it's an outrage."

Seagal also expressed his thoughts about Trump's failure to get anything done in office, saying:

"We have these Democrats that have this whole other agenda to kind of, when I say Democrats it's not just the Democrats, but there are this whole group of leftover Obama-ites and people who feel that they should really, sort of, kind of overthrow Trump, and any decisions he makes, anything that he tries to do, he gets blocked so often from the enemies within, so it's very difficult for him to do anything."

You can watch the entire interview below:

Twitter had some major issues with Seagal's statements:

But, ultimately, does anyone really care what Seagal has to add to the conversation?

Womp womp.

AOC Has Mic Drop Response To MAGA Republicans Who Try To Mock 'Democratic Priorities'

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez issued a powerful rebuke against President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, pointing out why mocking things like affordable housing and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "Democrat priorities" ultimately hurts Republicans.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
