Donald Trump booed as the 1st sitting US president at a regular-season NFL game since Carter in 1978

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) Donald Trump became the first sitting president in nearly a half-century at a regular-season NFL game, attending the Washington Commanders contest against the Detroit Lions on Sunday.
There were loud boos from some spectators in the stands when Trump was shown on the videoboard late in the first half standing in a suite with House Speaker Mike Johnson and again when the president was introduced by the stadium announcer at halftime.
The jeering continued while Trump read an oath for members of the military to recite as part of an on-field enlistment ceremony during the break in the game.
Im a little bit late, Trump told reporters earlier when he got off Air Force One after landing at Joint Base Andrews, following a flyover of Northwest Stadium during the game. He then got in his armored car for the drive to the arena. Were gonna have a good game. Things are going along very well. The countrys doing well. The Democrats have to open it up, he said a reference to the government shutdown.

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) Dan Campbells Detroit Lions do not lose consecutive games, so as the head coach seemingly took over play-calling Sunday, Jared Goff threw three TD passes and Jahmyr Gibbs found the end zone three times in a bounce-back 44-22 win over the Washington Commanders in front of President Donald Trump.
