Mike Pence walks out of game after players kneel

Vice President Mike Pence walked out of the San Francisco 49ers vs Indianapolis Colts football game on Sunday after viewing the players kneeling during the national anthem. He tweeted that "I left today's Colts game because @POTUS and I will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our Flag, or our National Anthem." President Trump reported that he asked Pence to leave if any of the players knelt during the anthem.
