The president grew to become the primary sitting chief in almost 50 years to attend a regular-season NFL matchup, sparking blended reactions from followers and gamers alike.
President Donald Trump made a high-profile look at Sunday’s Washington Commanders recreation, changing into the primary sitting president in almost half a century to attend a regular-season NFL matchup. The Commanders fell 44-22 to the Detroit Lions, however a lot of the gang’s consideration was mounted on Trump’s presence — and the divided response it drew.
Loud boos erupted all through the stadium when Trump appeared on the videoboard throughout the first half, standing alongside Home Speaker Mike Johnson. The jeers resurfaced when the stadium announcer launched him at halftime, the place he led a short army oath ceremony for brand spanking new enlistees.
“I’m a bit of bit late,” Trump advised reporters, in keeping with the Related Press, after touchdown at Joint Base Andrews and catching the ultimate a part of the primary half. “We’re gonna have a very good recreation. Issues are going alongside very properly. The nation’s doing properly. The Democrats must open it up,” he added, referencing the continuing authorities shutdown.
Many on X weighed in on the state of affairs, even politician Jasmine Crockett.
