Reports have surfaced suggesting that former President Donald Trump was booed during Sunday’s Super Bowl at Caesars Superdome.
However, video footage from the event presents a mixed picture, showing both cheers and possible boos from the crowd.
Trump, who attended the game alongside his daughter Ivanka Trump, was seen saluting as Jon Batiste performed the national anthem. When he appeared on the stadium’s jumbotron, social media videos captured loud cheers from many attendees. Trump later shared footage on Truth Social emphasizing the applause.
However, some sources suggest there were also boos.
Nick Field, a writer for Decision Desk HQ, posted on X (formerly Twitter) that Trump “got booed during the national anthem.”
A video posted by the NFL on YouTube hints at a mix of reactions, with some audible boos drowned out by cheers.
Left-wing media outlet Occupy Democrats also claimed that Trump faced a negative reception when walking onto the field, but their video evidence was inconclusive.
While debate continues over the crowd’s reaction to Trump, Taylor Swift faced audible disapproval.
Swift, who was in attendance to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, was met with boos when shown on the stadium screen. Social media clips captured the moment, with Swift appearing momentarily surprised by the reaction.
Trump later took to Truth Social to criticize Swift, who has been vocal in her political endorsements, including her recent support for Vice President Kamala Harris.
