President Donald Trump jetted over to Cincinnati, Ohio Monday to tout his economic accomplishments and newly enacted tax cuts, but he couldn’t resist squeezing in a dig at the NFL during his speech.
Trump pointed to Sunday night’s Super Bowl matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots and pointed out one simple fact: “There was nobody kneeling at the beginning of the Super Bowl.”
WATCH:
“We’ve made a lot of improvement, haven’t we?” POTUS continued to enthusiastic applause. “That’s a big improvement.”
“And on top of that it was a really good game.”
Trump wasn’t kidding.
The Eagles — with backup quarterback Nick Foles under center — managed to de-throne the Patriots in what can only be described as an instant classic.
The game produced the most yards gained from scrimmage in NFL history, and Eagles fans celebrated the team’s first Super Bowl in the most Philly-fashion possible. (RELATED: Philly Fan Celebrates Super Bowl Win By Eating Actual Horse Poop)
Fly, Eagles, fly.
