Trump to Become First Sitting President to Attend Super Bowl

The historic visit highlights Donald Trump's complex relationship with the NFL and its cultural significance.

  • Donald Trump will attend the Super Bowl on Sunday, marking the first time a sitting U.S. president has done so.
  • Trump's history with the NFL includes past animosity, such as his involvement in a 1980s lawsuit with the league and his criticism of player protests during his first term.
  • The NFL has removed the phrase 'End Racism' from the end zones for the game, with some interpreting this as aligning with Trump's administration's anti-'woke' stance.
  • NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reaffirmed the league's commitment to diversity programs despite criticism from the Trump administration on similar initiatives.
  • The event could see political tensions, with potential anti-Trump sentiment during the halftime show headlined by Kendrick Lamar, who has previously criticized the president.
