President Biden’s reelection campaign unveiled a digital ad ahead of Thursday night’s NFL draft, calling out former President Trump for saying football is “boring.”

The 20-second video opens with Trump saying at a rally that “football is boring as hell” and a photograph of Biden with Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce during a visit to the White House after winning the Super Bowl last year.

It also includes Trump saying “nobody cares about football because of it… it’s boring” and shots of Biden holding a football with players. “Make the right pick in November,” the ad concludes.

The video dropped on X shortly before the first round of the NFL draft kicked off in Detroit. It aimed to highlight that “Biden is a proud football fan, cheering alongside the over 120 million Americans who watched this year’s Super Bowl,” according to the president’s campaign.

1. 260,000 in the streets

Many traveled many many miles to be there just to hear a name or two for their team. And those middle aged men AND women were in much more elaborate get ups than ANY KKKlan Jamboree for trump.
The only way he will ever get a crowd that large is when he is escorted out of court in cuffs headed to a cell for espionage.

6. I am not a football fan but not because it's boring

I think there are two reasons why Donny said it's boring:

1. It takes attention off him
2. His pathetic little feelings are still hurt that his offer to buy the Buffalo Bills got rejected.

Poor Donny his diaper rash must really make him super cranky.

I love the Biden Campaign's ads and especially the Lincoln Project ads.

11. Thank every God, Goddess, Angel, etc. that piece of crap wasn't allowed to "buy" the Bills

No way were the real business men and women of the NFL gonna let that happen. He had already destroyed the USFL and sued the NFL in the 80s! AND, of course he used cooked books! Michael Cohen testified under oath about that. JFC, I almost passed out hearing that.

"Hey, I just sued you, let me in your club!" What a colossal delusional asshole.

[Traildogbob]

13. Hammer and nail

You are spot on.

[Traildogbob]

14. Life long fan and player

But I know many do not. But gotta say seeing middle age men so deep into it to go out in public in those getups, is kinda cultish. Disturbing. And a whole damn lot of em have just as gaudy trump costumes for his KKKlan Jamborees off season. I mean shaving your head and painting it team colors with logos.
Always thought it’s gotta be a long walk from the stadium in all that crap when you get your ass beat.
Hopefully November will send those same ones on the walk of shame in all their red white and blue trump shit.

36. TSF says its boring because Taylor Swift.her swifties are Kanasas City Chiefs fans (...because Taylor dates Kelce..)nt

[SheilaAnn]

2. Which clearly shows trump doesn't know how to read a country. Schlub. n/t

[malthaussen]

3. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

I quit watching pro football even before the turn of the century. When I want to watch a game, I view video of games from the '60s and '70s. I won't go so far as to say I "hate" today's football, but we're not on speaking terms.

5. Yeah, I get it

Only in highschool did I find football interesting. But I know enough that if I was running for office, I would keep quiet about it.

[Aristus]

19. It still beats me, with gridiron football held up as the ideal of American masculinity,

that we don't switch to something like Australian rules football. Non-stop play, no pads, no helmets. None of this fifteen-seconds of play followed by five minutes of standing around stuff. No more useless time-wasting penalties like 'delay of game' or 'twelfth man on the field', that kind of thing. Just get out there and play the game.

4. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

7. He hates it because he's never been any good at sports

except cheating at golf, and tooling around the green on his golf cart.

He's not a team player, and basically hates everything.

I love football, my team and fan energy. Can't wait for next season!

[DinahMoeHum]

8. Trump's whining 'cause he never got an NFL franchise. . .

. . .and had to settle for the NJ Generals with the upstart USFL. And ran both of those to the ground.
And when he sued, he was rewarded damages of $1.00. ONE DOLLAR.

[BlueKota]

9. I remember thinking when he tried to buy the Buffalo Bills

that doesn't being the Susan Lucci of the football world provide enough misery for them already?

I couldn't stand Donny before he ran for President. I admit I am biased against rich arrogant assholes.

[SWBTATTReg]

30. $1 dollar? I didn't know this. This is especially a kick in the butt for tRUMP and just goes to show you that his

so-called business savvy isn't what he claims it is. He's still a loser, always will be a loser.

[LisaM]

10. Yeah, it doesn't have the pizzazz of televised golf.

Which is usually about as exciting as watch paint dry.

[leftieNanner]

21. TV golf

I remember in the olden days, when the commentators had to whisper because they were actually on the course and not in a control booth.

[LisaM]

32. Yeah, me too!

They didn't bounce around so much either.

[yardwork]

12. Excellent. This is smart of Biden's team.

Most of the men considering voting for Trump like football. It's smart of Biden to point out Trump's words.

More of this. Mine Trump's speeches for hud actual words that his voters won't like.

[SoFlaBro]

15. Football is fucking awesome! There is no better sport on the planet.

[lastlib]

22. Well, except ultimate frisbee.....

but then, I'm biased, because I was really good at that, and totally sucked at football and pretty much everything else except chess. And I'm absolutely sure that Traitor Don HATES chess! It's too much of a smart-people sport for him.

[SoFlaBro]

33. I never had the cardio for ultimate frisbee.

[niyad]

16. I have zero interest in any sport, but I am well aware that there are

millions of fans, which is their right.

[Midnight Writer]

29. Exactly. I, too, find it boring, but I am not so arrogant that I therefore assume "nobody cares about it".

Lots of people have lots of different interests, and that is how it should be.

[Elessar Zappa]

17. Hey, whatever works!

[usonian]

18. Does he think that the Lingerie Football League is more interesting?

[Javaman]

20. many heads just exploded in texas.

football is king here, especially among repukes.

[ALBliberal]

24. He hates it because he failed with USFL

and nothing is ever his fault he attributes it to football being boring.

[Upthevibe]

25. Awesome!

All they have to do is show him saying things and expressing his true feelings about what many Americans love:

Football
Dogs
on and
on and
on and....

We should make a list of things that most or many Americans enjoy that is is CLUELESS about!!
https://www.google.com/search?q=videos+of+donald+trump+saying+negative+things+about+dogs&rlz=1C1RXQR_enUS1095US1095&oq=videos+of+donald+trump+saying+negative+things+about

And are there videos of him saying the negative things about the military?

[unblock]

26. Holy crap what a gaffe! Watching football is going to church for many, especially in many red states!

This may well pull voters away from Donnie even more than a conviction would!

[ShazzieB]

27. NOBODY cares about football? Really?

The projection is strong with this one!

Only a towering narcissist like TSF could make such a ridiculous statement and not be aware of how ridiculous it sounds.

Whether one is personally into football or not, it's impossible to miss the fact that millions of people love it, unless you live in a cave with no human contact and no TV or internet access!

But he doesn't care for it, so on course that means "nobody" does. Tell me you think you're the center of the universe without telling me, you orange jackhole!

[ZonkerHarris]

28. Trump doesn't like things that take people's attention away from him.

So you know a three hour game where people are doing things other than big men coming up to him with tears in their eyes telling them about how they like to beat off when they think about him is not his cup of tea

[LetMyPeopleVote]

31. This is a great ad

[LetMyPeopleVote]

34. This is A+ trolling from team Biden

[SKKY]

35. Trump is still butt hurt the NFL said, "You're not getting anywhere near the Buffalo Bills. Girl bye!!"

[GregariousGroundhog]

37. Football? Boring? Has he seen golf!?

[canetoad]

38. Truisms

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

39. More projection

The orange crybaby is boring.
