On Saturday, Perlman slammed Florida U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz's proposal to have U.S. Soccer players stand during the National Anthem (https://sports.yahoo.com/gop-congressman-floats-bill-that-would-force-us-soccer-players-to-stand-for-the-national-anthem-223508170.html). On Sunday morning, Gaetz responded to Perlman, tweeting: "This racial justice warrior had no problem in Hollywood portraying the White Supremacist leader of a motorcycle gang (https://twitter.com/mattgaetz/status/1272177761088569345). #SOA." Perlman responded: "Yessir, so true! So rewarding playing a**holes on tv (https://twitter.com/perlmutations/status/1272194628003872772). Tell me sir, how is it actually being one?" Meanwhile, Perlman challenged Ted Cruz to a wrestling match (https://toofab.com/2020/06/15/ron-perlman-wrestle-ted-cruz/) with proceeds going to Black Lives Matter after the U.S. senator weighed in, but Cruz wants to tag in former wrestling coach Congressman Jim Jordan.
