Trump Advised He’d Likely Face Booing at the Super Bowl, Prompting a Non-Attendance

Aides reportedly warned President Trump that he would likely be booed by the crowd at this year’s Super Bowl, a concern that helped shape his decision not to attend. The claim, drawn from two insiders familiar with the situation and two White House briefings, notes that viral clips of a hostile reception could overshadow the event. Trump has attended major sports events recently, but this year officials prefer to avoid potential viral moments amid anti-Trump performers and other scrutiny.
