Donald Trump became the first President ever to attend a Super Bowl when he rocked up in New Orleans to watch the Eagles play the Chiefs. However, like many other fans, he saw a lopsided game. Philadelphia took a mammoth 24-point lead in the first half, and followed that up with 10 more unanswered points to open the second half.

With the score 34-0, news filtered through that the President had left the building. Trump had praised Kansas City's Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes just a few hours earlier, given that the latter apparently lent him her support during the campaign. Perhaps seeing them fall so far behind dampened his interest.

Donald Trump's prediction falls flat as Patrick Mahomes puts in a disappointing performance

Donald Trump had predicted before Super Bowl LIX that the Chiefs were going to win given Patrick Mahomes' ability on the field. He praised him and his wife before saying that he expected Kansas City to lift the Lombardi Trophy.

"I've watched this great quarterback, who's got a phenomenal wife, she is a Trump fan and a MAGA fan, I happen to love her, she's a great person... I have to go with Kansas City," Trump said.

Patrick Mahomes returned the favor saying that it was an honor to play in front of a sitting President, irrespective of who was in the White House.

"It's always cool to be able to play in front of a sitting President," the Chiefs quarterback told reporters on Wednesday. "Someone that is at the top position in our country."

Tight end Travis Kelce had similar sentiments, saying:

"No matter who the President is, I know I'm excited because it's the biggest game of my life," Kelce stated. "Having the President there... it's the best country in the world. So, that'd be pretty cool."

But the game turned out very differently for Kelce and the Chiefs. The Eagles took a 40-6 lead, and two touchdowns in garbage time could not disguise how thoroughly the Chiefs were dominated.

This was not just revenge for two years ago. This was an annihilation that would have left any Kansas City fan feeling blue, not just Donald Trump.

Philadelphia, meanwhile, can begin celebrating their second-ever championship.
