President Donald Trump’s ban on travel from certain Middle East nations hasn’t been received with open arms by many in America, as is clear by the protests across the nation. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, not known for his views on politics, touched on this topic and wondered out loud if President Trump will make it through his first term.

Wilson is hardly the first prominent athlete to voice an opinion on the travel ban. Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry used some extremely strong language to describe how he feels regarding the executive order, as have many others.
One thing I think we can agree on, no matter which side of the argument we are on, is that voicing our opinions is a right we hold dear.
