Donald Trump was going to use the Eagles coming to the White House to rile his MAGA base up about the anthem which is just a cover for MAGA being racist towards black people.
Most of the Eagles knew this and declined to come, so Trump decided to cancel the trip and make them seem unpatriotic, because that is what he does.
The Eagles held meetings with their players in recent weeks and, according to sources, Jeff Lurie didn't want to put the players in a tough spot so he decided to send a smaller contingent. Other players were going to have an optional day at the facility. Now, no trip to D.C.
