Donald Trump supporters set fire to trainers and clothing in protest as ex-quarterback Colin Kaepernick appeared on 'Just Do It' ads with the slogan: “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”There has also been support for the campaign, with ex-CIA director John Brennan praising Kaepernick for highlighting “continued racial injustice”.
