President Donald Trump clearly ruffled many feathers at the Washington Commanders‘ game on Sunday!
POTUS was the first sitting president in almost half a century to attend a regular-season NFL game. He showed up to watch the Detroit Lions compete against the Commanders in Maryland, but it appears folks weren’t pleased to see him. When the Republican POTUS arrived and was shown on screen during the first half, the stadium lit up with boos.

He was there in honor of Veterans Day on Tuesday and during halftime, he read the Oath of Enlistment to service members getting sworn in on the field. But right as he started, the booing was SO LOUD, it totally appeared to stun him to silence for a moment! He looked offended AF! BTW, during this moment, he mistakenly said:
“I, and state your name…”
Everyone’s accusing him of screwing up the Pledge of Allegiance and short-circuiting because of all the negativity. And while he did look really hurt over the booing and a bit confused by the whole situation, this is reportedly the typical way to say the Oath, as he was instructing the inductees to say their own names out loud. But without seeing them on the screen, it seems like Donny just wasn’t paying close attention to his task. Watch (below):
Trump got booed so hard at the Commanders game he literally said, “I, state your name…” during the pledge.

Later in the show, he also appeared for an 8-minute interview during the FOX broadcast, reflecting on his own (admittedly not great) football days in high school. He recalled:
“I played tight end, but it was not quite football like this. It was a little bit easier. It wasn’t so tough.”

Per TMZ, Trump left before the game ended.
His appearance at the Commanders stadium comes after ESPN reported Trump wants the team to name their upcoming stadium in DC after him. It doesn’t sound like the team’s fans would be in favor of that!
