It looks like that voodoo that you do so well, Donald, has backfired. And maybe it’s a foreshadowing of things to come, God help us. We all know the saying “Everything Trump Touches Dies” and that certainly worked tonight. Trump was on Fox News earlier today and of course he had to make the Super Bowl about him. There is nothing in this world that isn’t about him and getting him more attention.

So much for that prophecy. Kansas City went down in flames tonight. But if you think Trump was asinine, take a look at this.
It’s a cult. pic.twitter.com/ujZc8Qdpc8

Our government is a 24/7 reality TV show. Oh and guess who did not show up at the Super Bowl. Melania did not. It’s been three weeks, did you think the devoted spouse routine was going to go on forever? The only reason that’s noteworthy is because it’s the most obvious sham in the White House, Melania as adoring wife. Or, maybe she thought the Eagles would win?
Donald Trump reportedly made an early exit from Super Bowl LIX as the Kansas City Chiefs faced a surprising defeat. The 78-year-old had become the first sitting president to attend the NFL’s season-finale showpiece with his appearance at Caesars Superdome on Sunday, but seems to have left before the final whistle.
Before the game, Trump had backed the Chiefs to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles and secure a historic Super Bowl ‘three-peat’, yet a disastrous performance by Patrick Mahomes led to a nightmare evening for the two-time defending champions who were trailing 34-6 ahead of the fourth quarter. It’s unlikely that Kansas City’s poor performance is the sole reason behind Trump’s early departure, but it may well have influenced proceedings given that the 47th US president had supported Andy Reid’s team heading into the match.
Nonetheless, it appears he has left the venue ahead of the final period of play, as reported by Nikki Schwab of the Daily Mail on X (formerly Twitter). “Trump has left the Super Bowl, per pooler @svdate,” Schwab posted.
In any event, let us hope that Trump’s foreign policy ideas are not as catastrophic as his sports predictions. But the fact is, they’re worse. And how is Trump going to spin this, I wonder? Pretend that Kansas City did win? Like he pretended he had an amazing viewing audience for the Inauguration, when in fact he did not?

I don’t recall a President ever choosing any team in any professional leagues’ championship game. He’d just piss off the other’s city’s citizens, wouldn’t he? So now ALL of Philadelphia has good reason to hate him. You know, in addition to his “policies.”
professional sports is an industry, and Presidents really shouldn’t play favorites.
🏈 Thank you for letting me know that Sphincter Face cares just as much about the big game as he does about “his” citizens who watch it…meaning no caring at all!! And the Sphincter’s appearance and disappearance gives me a cherry on top of my decision to not care about football anymore. 👋
It is just a game, but it is not the game I grew up with and I determined, whether my Chiefs win or lose, I’m out. As a kid, my family was thrilled when the Dallas Texans moved north and became my Chiefs! Football games were pure fun and always a great place to bond with other fun families. I’m the only original Chiefs-family member left and it was getting hard to keep up that old feeling. But, mostly, it is just not fun to hear about the money and the business and owners threatening cities and cities spending unconscionable amounts of money and haters hating other teams and the refs and social media taking it seriously to a dangerous level!! [And all of it just like the political atmosphere that Sphincter brought about! American Carnage? No lie!]
My sister-in-law recently downsized my long-gone brother’s Chiefs mancave. It was very impressive and very expensive, but it took up room and my brother should be remembered for more than that! Thank you for the ugly loss, my Chiefs, you lifted a very heavy weight off my shoulders! I’m free!! 👋👋
He can change the outcome with his magic Sharpie.
I wonder if him getting booed on arrival had anything to do with him leaving early.
