POTUS was met with a chorus of boos Sunday when his face flashed across the stadium screens moments after Jennifer Hudson performed the national anthem ahead of Spain and Argentina’s championship clash.
Check out the video … Trump stood beside First Lady Melania Trump as the crowd made its feelings known — and the broadcast quickly swapped the presidential close-up for an aerial shot of MetLife Stadium.
Trump arrived in New Jersey aboard Marine One roughly 45 minutes before kickoff and watched the match from a glass-enclosed luxury suite alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino and other world leaders.
As TMZ previously reported … White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Thursday Trump would attend soccer’s biggest game, calling it a fitting conclusion to a tournament showcasing America on the world stage.
Of course, this isn’t Trump’s first chilly reception at a major championship. He recently was also booed by fans when he appeared during the national anthem at Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden last month.
Trump still had a major role awaiting him after the final whistle … he is expected to join Infantino in presenting the World Cup trophy to the winning team.
DJT came ready to award the champions … but the crowd awarded him the loudest “boos” of the match.
