Donald Trump took a shot at pop superstar Taylor Swift after her boyfriend's team was blown out in the Super Bowl Sunday.
Trump became the first president to attend a Super Bowl, and he stuck around long enough to hear the crowd at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans boo the 35-year-old star when she was shown on the jumbotron screen in the first half as the Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs.
"The only one that had a tougher night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift," Trump posted on Truth Social afterward. "She got BOOED out of the Stadium. MAGA is very unforgiving!"
The Chiefs had been 19-3 with Swift watching from the stands, including a perfect 9-0 in the postseason, but Sunday night they lost 40-22 to the Eagles, who held her boyfriend Travis Kelce to four receptions for just 39 yards — the fewest in any of his five Super Bowl appearances.
Eagles fans booed Swift when her image was shown on a screen during the game, which prompted a bemused smile from the singer — who publicly endorsed Kamala Harris during last year's presidential election.
Trump also complained about the NFL's kickoff rule adopted at the start of the regular season, which leaves less room for defenders to build up momentum before colliding with the returner, a change that league officials say produced a 57 percent increase in kickoff returns this season compared to 2023.
"The worst part of the Super Bowl, by far, was watching the Kickoff where, as the ball is sailing through the air, the entire field is frozen, stiff," Trump groused. "College Football does not do it, and won’t! Whose idea was it to ruin the Game?"
