President Donald Trump is, once again, entering the chat as New York Giants starting quarterback Jaxson Dart continues to receive backlash for introducing the commander-in-chief at a recent political rally.
“Well, first of all, I wish I looked just like Jaxson,” the president, 79, said in a Saturday, May 30, interview on Fox News Channel’s My View With Lara Trump. “He’s this guy. I said, is he a male model or what? He’s a handsome guy, like a beautiful guy, and a conservative guy. He said, ‘I love you, sir.’ And I didn’t know he was doing it.”
Dart, 23, introduced Donald Trump at a campaign-like rally for Republican congressman Mike Lawler on May 22 in Suffern, New York, sparking instant backlash online and even among his fellow NFL players.
“Big Blue nation, it’s a pleasure to be here,” the young quarterback told the crowd. “What an honor, what a privilege it is to be here, and without further ado, I’m grateful, I’m honored, I’m pleasured, to introduce the 45th and 47th president of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump.”

“He’s potentially a great quarterback,” the president said. “He’s a young boy. He had just really started. But when he’s in a game, he moves the team. And I didn’t know him, but I watched him a little bit. And he really moves the team. He’s got tremendous potential. He stays healthy He’s going to be a great. So when Jaxon gets… harassed a little bit, he’s also loved more, because we have more people than they do.”
The president continued, “And a lot of the people that you think, like people in Los Angeles, wealthy people that, I see them all the time, they’re hitting me a little bit, and they meet me and they say, sir, I voted for you. I said, I know, I can tell. Guys voted for me, I could tell you people on television that knocked me all the time voted for me.”
