Donald Trump leads the raucous “USA!” chant from the suite at Steelers-Jets game

After a rally in Latrobe on Saturday, Donald Trump remained in Pennsylvania on Sunday to attend a primetime NFL game on Sunday night with the New York Jets visiting the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium.

And when Steelers fans saw the 45th President of the United States, there was a loud “USA!” chants filled the stadium.

Trump’s deputy director of communications, Margo Martin, shared the video on X of Trump pumping his fist and egging on the Steelers fans below as they chanted. Trump was also seen waving to fans.

Former Steelers star wide receiver Antonio Brown, who spoke at the Latrobe rally and publicly supported Trump ahead of this year’s presidential election, waited on the tarmac for the Republican candidate before the game.

Brown was spotted outside with Steelers fans before the game, launching yellow and black rally towels with “Trump/Vance” written on them. He was decked out in MAGA gear, just as he was at the rally on Saturday.

Brown and his ex-Steelers teammate Le’Veon Bell, who also spoke at the rally, were expected to attend the game alongside Trump, which drew significant national attention during this week’s NFL action.

Although it is a Steelers home game, the Jets made massive trade news leading up to this game when Aaron Rodgers reunited with his old Green Bay Packers receiver, Davante Adams, who was transferred from the Las Vegas Raiders after requesting a exchange of Sin. City.

But Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin also made the switch to quarterback, as Russell Wilson also made his debut with Pittsburgh on Sunday evening.

As if that national attention wasn’t enough, the Steelers knew they had to beef up their safety protocols, with Trump expected to make an appearance and tell fans to get to the parking lots and the game early to ensure they have a good fan experience.

“As former President Trump is expected to attend Sunday night’s game as a guest of an individual suite holder, we are working with the Secret Service and local authorities to ensure the safety and security of all our fans,” the statement said. “As always, we will work to make the fan experience the same as always at every Steelers home game at Acrisure Stadium.

“We encourage fans to arrive early to the parking lots and gates so they can enjoy our pregame experience and our game-long celebrations in honor of the 50th anniversary of our Super Bowl IX team.”
