Super Bowl fans divided after brief camera shot

Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in the LIX Super Bowl, with one standout moment being the presence of President Donald Trump at the Caesars Superdome, home of the New Orleans Saints, where the game was held.

Trump made history being the first ever sitting president of the United States to watch the Super Bowl game live.

Before the “Big Game,” Trump said in a statement, “I look forward to joining the fans in New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX to cheer on two great teams – the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles – as they battle for the National Football League’s Vince Lombardi Trophy.”

During the national anthem, performed by Jon Batiste, before the game on Sunday, February 9, the camera showed the president who was spotted in a salute.

He was standing next to his daughter, Ivanka Trump, and  Gayle Benson, owner of the New Orleans Saints.

The moment he appeared on the big screen, the crowd went crazy.

Many agreed that the POTUS received cheers by the many fans gathered at the stadium.

However, there were also those who said that the live broadcast made it difficult to determine for sure if the loud cheering was in fact booing.

Some commented on the salute he gave the crowd, with a person writing, “Why is he standing like that? He didn’t even serve in the military. That’s hilarious.” Another added: “The hand over the heart gesture is really difficult for him.”

A person commented, “Donald Trump better be sitting during this military salute moment tbh.” Someone else added: “Why does Donald Trump salute, is he an army vet?”

Of course, President Trump’s supporters were quick to write that being the Commander in Chief gives him all the right to salute during the national anthem.
