Travis Kelce is cool with Donald Trump attending the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl LIX fixture against the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans on Sunday, February 9th. The star tight end believes it’s an honor to have the President of the United States of America watching their game live.

Kelce spoke with the media on the first day after arriving in NOLA. He talked about the Chiefs’ chances of a three-peat, praised his girlfriend’s Pop-Tarts-making skills, and questioned why the media was buying into the referees are ‘rigging’ football games for the Chiefs theory.

On Tuesday, one reporter asked Kelce about his opinion on Donald Trump attending the Super Bowl. The 35-year-old revealed in a calm voice that it’s an honor to host the president.

It’s a great honor I think, no matter who the president is. I’m excited because it’s the biggest game of my life, you know, and having the president there—it’s the best country in the world, so it’d be pretty cool.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift don’t see eye to eye with Donald Trump

Kelce is willing to keep aside his differences and welcome Trump even though Swift is set to be present as well. The beef between Trump and Swift goes back a while. Before the recent elections, the pop icon endorsed Kamala Harris, disappointing Trump.

It was just a question of time… But she’s a very liberal person. She seems to always endorse a Democrat. And she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.

Trump’s presence at the Caesar Superdome will be the first time a sitting president will attend and watch a Super Bowl game. In a recent press meeting, the 78-year-old indirectly praised Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

I don’t want to say, but there’s a certain quarterback that seems to be a pretty good winner.

Later, when reporters looked for a reaction from Mahomes, the 3x Super Bowl winner said he did not see the clip.

It’s always cool to be able to play in front of a sitting president, someone at the top position in our country.

Mahomes chimed.

What success in football means for Mahomes

Kelce and Mahomes focus on winning games rather than talking about political motivation.

I think I always said in my career is that, for me, success is leaving everything you have on the football field. You get an opportunity to best practices, best games, OTAs, or whatever it is. I don’t wanna have regrets setting in my career. If I go out there and feel like I progress and I know that put everything on to the football game though that will be a successful career for me.

Patrick Mahomes said via Pete Sweeney.

It’s not every day a team gets to win three consecutive Super Bowls. Famous names, including soccer legend Lionel Messi, don’t want to miss being part of history.
