Videos have surfaced from both the TV broadcast and fans in-person at the game of Trump being booed mercilessly by the crowd at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland.
It was a big deal to have the current president at the game, but Trump was not well-received by most of the Commanders or Lions fans there. He tried to deliver a statement during the swearing-in ceremony at halftime.
Additionally, some fans were not only booing him, but they were flipping off the president. It was an ugly scene for Trump, who seemed unbothered.

Currently, the Commanders are planning to build a new stadium at the old RFK Stadium site, which will reportedly cost $3.7 billion. Unlike Northwest Stadium, RFK Stadium was located in Washington, D.C.
The game was not close, as the Lions steamrolled the Commanders — who were without quarterback Jayden Daniels — 44-22. This marked the Commanders' fifth-straight loss.
Trump also joined Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma in the booth during the second half of the game. They discussed a wide range of topics, including the president's past playing days.
This was the second game that Trump attended this year. Earlier in the year, Trump was at Super Bowl 59, where the Philadelphia Eagles blew out the Kansas City Chiefs .
