Jaxson Dart has received mixed reactions after introducing POTUS Donald Trump at an event in Rockland County on Friday. Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey called out the people criticizing the Giants quarterback for taking part in an event with the president of the United States of America.
“The fake Trump hate funny to me. Majority voted for him but everybody seem to hate him lol… Somebody lying,” Humphrey tweeted.
Thanks for the submission!
Free agent defensive end Cam Jordan fact-checked Humphrey’s statement on Monday. He highlighted how Trump did not receive the majority of the votes during the elections, countering the claim that he’s a popular leader.

“Marlo sidenote he didn win majority of over 50% votes he was just under, he did win by 1.5% more than Kamala. Semantics. Ppl, sorta like NFL players mad at current CBA nuances when they had a chance to vote, majority agreed to it.”
