Isaac made headlines in 2020 when he stood for the national anthem while his colleagues knelt in protest during the wake of George Floyd's death. On "Gaines for Girls," a podcast, Isaac described offering a different solution after witnessing Floyd’s tragedy. When he listened to the Black Lives Matter organization and movement, Isaac became uncomfortable and disagreed with their tone and rhetoric.
