However, boos from Commanders fans were heard. NFL fans who tuned in to watch Trump at halftime of the game took issue with the boss, saying it was disrespectful toward those who were going to protect the U.S. from its enemies.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown scored a touchdown and performed Trump’s signature dance move in the end zone. The score came before Trump arrived in Landover, Maryland, for the game.
