🦅For the first time in my life, I'll be rooting for The Eagles!🦅

Is Donald Trump holding a grudge against the Philadelphia Eagles?

In a post on his Truth Social, the president congratulated the Kansas City Chiefs after the team's 32-29 over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship game on Sunday night. Trump also praised the Bills on a “tremendous season.”

However, Trump didn't mention the Eagles in the post or in any other social media messages. The Birds will face the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX after a 55-23 drubbing of the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game on Sunday afternoon.

Despite pulling off an upset victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII, the Eagles' visit to the White House was canceled.

Just stirring the pot. I did not watch the Bills game but the first thing I read was The Chiefs and officiating. Again and again and again. Game after game.

It's fucking stupid. They should fix it but they won't. Typical political bull shit.

and not a polite excuse. "My girlfriend would kill me" isn't enough. "I'm an NFL hero and I'm not going to kiss your ass you fascist prick" would be preferred.
