“Disgraceful”: Vice President JD Vance Reacts to National Anthem Controversy Surrounding the WNBA Finals

Vice President JD Vance has publicly condemned the WNBA Finals participants for their decision to leave the court during the national anthem. Vance characterized the protest as disrespectful to the country and suggested that the athletes should demonstrate more gratitude for their professional opportunities.

The controversy stems from consecutive instances where the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries exited the floor before the anthem began. While the league rulebook instructs personnel to stand in a dignified manner during the song, it remains unclear if the current regulations mandate that players must remain on the court for its duration.
