President Donald Trump took to social media early Monday to gush over Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders following his team’s decisive victory Sunday over the Las Vegas Raiders — and with an unusual focus on the rookie quarterback’s genetics.
“Shedeur Sanders was GREAT,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “Wins first game, career start, as a pro (for Cleveland). Great Genes. I TOLD YOU SO!”
Trump has frequently commented on NFL games. He’s lashed out at a new kickoff rule intended to improve safety for players but slammed by the president as a form of “sissy football” designed by “radical leftists.” He’s also criticized specific plays, as recently as early Monday morning when he torched the New York Giants for not kicking a field goal.
