During his media availability at Ravens training camp on Wednesday, a reporter framed a question on the visit around Trump's previous comments criticizing Baltimore as a city.
The Ravens coach criticized the reporter for the framing of the question and insisted that he "roots" for the president.
"How you framed that question — I would have framed that question like: ‘You got a chance to go visit with the president, man. What was that experience like?’" Harbaugh said. "It was amazing. It was awesome. And I promise you I root for our president. I want our president to be successful just like I want my quarterback to be successful, and I want my team to be successful, and it was an amazing experience. It's not often you get invited, and you get a chance to do something like that as a family."
