And then as soon as he left, the Kansas City Chiefs got their first touchdown cause effect.

I don't know, but the team he was rooting for, the Kansas City Chiefs, did not do well. Trump

left early. Apparently, Trump and all of MAGA was hating that halftime show by Kendrick Lamar,

which was quite good. By the way, here's Donald Trump on the field just looking like totally lost

here. Watch this.
So, yeah, Kendrick Lamar during the halftime show said, quote, the revolution is about to be televised. You pick the right time, but the wrong guy.
You also gotta love Samuel L. Jackson dressed up as Uncle Sam introducing Kendrick Lamar.
That couldn't have gone over well with Donald Trump and MAGA. One of the things I liked as well, though, is you had Donald Trump just glazing the Mahomes family and saying, oh, they're the MAGA family and the chiefs are all MAGA.
Here is Donald Trump with the Mahomes family and Margo Martin, one of Donald Trump's advisors, was bragging about it. Well, I think it's the everything Trump touches dies syndrome over here.
And just here was the moment where Donald Trump picked the Chiefs to win tonight, which did not happen. Here, play this clip.
Prediction? I hate to do it.

I just say that I've watched this great quarterback

who has, by the way, a phenomenal wife, okay?

She's a Trump fan.

She's a MAGA fan, so I happen to love her, okay?

But she's a great person.

I watched her being interviewed.

I said, boy, that's pretty good.

But she's great, and he's great.

I guess you have to say that when a quarterback wins as much as he's won, I have to go with Kansas City. I have to go with Kansas City.
At the same time, Philadelphia has a fantastic game. It's going to be just a great game.
When Donald Trump was headed to the Super Bowl, of course, he had to make the event all about himself. And so he already was like off to a horrible start.
So on

Air Force One, he said that what's really important about today is that I am hereby pronouncing today

Gulf of America Day. And it's even bigger and more important than the Super Bowl, what I'm doing.
Me,

me, me, me, me. Here, watch this moment right here.
So we thought this would be appropriate. Even bigger than the Super Bowl.
This is a big thing. And almost everybody now has sent it to that.
Attention on board. Ladies and gentlemen, if you could please direct your attention out to the right side of the aircraft.

Air Force One is currently in international waters. For the first time in history flying over the recently renamed Gulf of America.
Please enjoy the flight. And we are now about to head westbound to Super Bowl 59.
Wow. Yeah.
You did that well. Yeah.
Yeah. Woo!

Not the best of right again, Trump's headed to the Super Bowl and it's Air Force One with like golden balls on him because one of Elon Musk's 22 year old guys who he's sending into the various government departments to take our data refers to himself online as like Mr. Big Balls.
So they're like, we got big balls going here, there. And then Mag is like, what if Trump's actually big balls? It's very weird stuff, folks.
I know when Donald Trump was also on Air Force One and he was headed to the Super Bowl,

of course he had to again make it about himself and start a trade war again. Here he announced 25 percent tariffs on steel and aluminum coming into the U.S.
regardless of the country. Monday.
Tomorrow? Monday, yeah, tomorrow. What countries will those go on? Everybody.
Steel. Including Canada, Mexico, United States.
Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25% tariff. What about aluminum, sir? Aluminum, too.
10%? No, 25%. 25% for aluminum? 25% for both.
For both. And on steel, sir, are you ruling out that if on steel having a 51% stake or higher, they won't have a majority stake? Nobody can have a majority stake for U.S.
Steel. They can for other companies, but not for U.S.
Steel. I think you agree with that, Doug, right? U.S.
Steel was one of our great companies. And through a lot of stupidity and bad government and also bad management of the company, it lost that luster.
But it's going to gain it back and tariffs are going to help. Tariffs are going to make it very successful again.

And I think it is good management. Yeah.
So Canada, Australia, I mean, any country,

they all started scrambling after Donald Trump announced that. And Trump also said

aluminum as well. This is the kind of chaos that follows this guy, this maniac, wherever he goes.
But folks, for all of the kind of MAGA world, they love the Gulf of America thing. You had Eric Trump going, it's official, proclamation signed aboard Air Force One.
It's now the Gulf of America. Then you had Secretary Doug Burgum, who goes, it's official.
Congratulations, POTUS, on the Gulf of America. Interior Department has implemented your instruction, and we're calling it the Gulf of America.
This is America greatness. It's so pathetic.
The level of pathetic is, you know, the guy is dangerous, but this stuff is so pathetic

and humiliating.

Then other countries got word of his tariffs.

Trump promises 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, including from Canada.

Australian government scrambles to secure exemptions from Trump's 25% tariffs.

While all of this was going on as well in retaliation to Trump's erratic behavior, China announced it was opposing tariffs up to 15% on U.S. energy imports and certain vehicles starting Monday, according to the Financial Times.
Donald Trump was then asked aboard Air Force One about his plan to occupy Gaza with military force. And Trump said, we're going to make it into a great development site for real estate.
I'm committed to owning it. I'm going to own Gaza.
This is what he said headed to the Super Bowl. Here play this clip.
I'm committed to buying and owning Gaza. As far as us rebuilding it, we may give it to other states in the Middle East to build sections of it.
Other people may do it through our auspices. But we're committed to owning it, taking it, and making sure that Hamas doesn't move back.
There's nothing to move back into. The place is a demolition site.

It'll be, the remainder will be demolished. Everything's demolished.
I mean, you can't live in those buildings right now. They're very unsafe.
But we'll make it into a very good site for future. Yep, folks.
And all of MAGA, again, continued to flip out over that halftime performance by Kendrick Lamar. You had MAGA influencers like Benny Johnson saying, The halftime show should have been the village people with President Trump doing the Trump dance center stage, and you know it.
Arena would have gone berserker mode, would have made most viral halftime show in NFL history. Read the room, NFL.
Share if you agree. Aboard Air Force One, Donald Trump was also asked about Elon's financial disclosure and why Trump is keeping those a secret.
Here is what he had to say. If you read that, you'll see a lot.
I mean, he talks about his whole thing. I read one where it really gave a very good history of him.
But basically, it's the number of shares times a certain stock price. So why is that not public? It is public.
All you have to do is read it. And then finally, I'll share this with you right here.
Remember when Donald Trump was asked about, and this was in the White House, when he was asked about Patrick Mahomes,

or Donald Trump said, oh, you know, Tommy Tuberville coach Patrick Mahomes, which was a lie.

And then Tommy Tuberville said he recruited Patrick Mahomes, which is a lie. And then Patrick

Mahomes said, I don't even know the guy. Just endless lying here.
Here, play this clip.

And Tommy Tuberville, a great coach. You know, his quarterback was named Mahomes.
He was a great college coach. And I said, how good was he? He said, you don't want to know how good.
He made me into great coach. He's pretty, pretty good quarterback, right?

Yeah, he was very good.

A few moments later.

Last question.

So does this mean, since you used to coach Patrick Mahomes,

that you're rooting for the Chiefs at the big game this Sunday?

Well, I never even coached him.

What happened is I recruited him.

And then I left and went to another school.

But I've got to be very good friends with him. Meanwhile, I did.
He did not recruit me at the time. So I don't I don't remember if I ever got to meet him or not.
You get the idea. So, yep, the curse of Donald Trump continues, folks.
Not a good night for the Kansas City Chiefs. Go Eagles.
Great night for the Eagles. And there you have it, folks.
