President Trump attended the 120th Army-Navy football game this afternoon in Philadelphia for the third time in his presidency. Before the game, Trump spoke with players from both teams and announced that service academy athletes will be allowed to play professional football after graduation thanks to a new waiver.

It seems like Trump has figured out that football crowds treat him better than he was treated at the World Series where he was booed earlier this year.
