    Donald Trump has made it clear from the very start of this Presidency that he will be involved in the sports world.  Undoubtedly, he has a significant following from many well known athletes.  However, the President of the United States received an award from one NFL Team, and fans couldn’t believe it.

    Rocky Bleier officially proclaimed Trump an “honorary Steeler” during an address in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania – a moment that quickly stirred social media reactions:

    Rocky Bleier, a four-time Super Bowl champion and Vietnam War veteran, presented Donald Trump with a black-and-gold number 47 Steelers jersey. In the moment captured by several media outlets, Bleier stated, “I have the honor of making you an honorary Steeler.” The jersey number — 47 — is symbolic, tying into Trump’s bid to become the 47th President of the United States if re-elected in 2024.

    The gesture marks a notable moment in the intersection of sports and politics. Donald Trump has long embraced public sporting events, becoming the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl during his first term. Now, with his presence back in the Oval Office during a controversial second term, the blend of football and politics has taken on renewed visibility.

    Donald Trump’s new honorary status as a Steeler wasn’t welcomed by everyone. Social media erupted with divided opinions, particularly focused on Bleier’s role in honoring a figure as polarizing as Trump.

    “Since when is Rocky the spokesperson for the Steelers?” one user questioned. “Man I really respected [him] with serving his country and overcoming half his foot blown off. Yet there he stands with captain bone spurs himself.”

    Another fan echoed the sentiment, writing, “It puzzles me that Rocky fought and was wounded in Vietnam and supports a draft dodger. I mean somebody died in Trump’s place when he and Dr’s lied to get him deferred.”

    Still, others pointed out that fellow high-profile names, like Elon Musk, are also fans of the Steelers, with one user adding, “Elon Musk is a fan of the Steelers. We are a legendary team.”

    As Donald Trump makes more public appearances and rallies in key states, including Pennsylvania — a crucial battleground — the possibility of him attending future Steelers games is real. Whether this honorary jersey leads to a deeper connection with the franchise or remains symbolic, it’s clear that Trump’s role in the NFL spotlight isn’t over yet.
