FOX has been accused of scripting a particular moment from Super Bowl 59 involving Donald Trump.
Trump, now the 45th and 47th President of the United States made history on Sunday night as he became the first sitting POTUS to attend a Super Bowl in the flesh.
The 78-year-old got into the Caesars Superdome early, arriving around an hour before kickoff. And he was in his suite by the time New Orleans native Jon Baptiste performed the national anthem.
Cameras panned to Trump saluting the American Flag during the performance, prompting a loud cheer from the crowd, though some folks claimed they couldn’t tell whether people were cheering or booing.
Did FOX Cut To Donald Trump On Purpose?
Outkick’s Clay Travis has made claims of the moment being scripted due to Trump being shown when the words “through the perilous fight” were sung. Travis said he knew for sure that this was done on purpose in the wake of Trump shouting, “Fight, fight. Fight!” after he was nearly assassinated in 2024.
“They specifically chose to show Trump on the word ‘fight’ of the National Anthem because of the ‘fight, fight, fight’ reaction,” he said on the ‘Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.’
“I don’t know how many people know that. It’s super scripted every shot in the Super Bowl like that… I haven’t seen anybody else point that out. I know it to be true.”
Trump didn’t stick around for the entire game, however, leaving around halfway through.
He probably could not stand to watch the Chiefs have it handed to them by the Eagles after predicting that Kansas City would come out on top.
