I get the Super Bowl is relatively new, but it kinda shocks me no other president has. I guess when you’re trying to prove you’re not Hitler 2 you gotta look good for the people you’re going to send to jail.

The President makes $400,000 a year. They can’t sit in the stands, so the reality is no president should be able to afford to go to the game.
