Reports circulated this week that Trump plans to attend Sunday’s game in Tampa between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. As with any event he attends, security will be tight at Raymond James Stadium.

Not everybody is thrilled to see him coming to the contest.

Carmen Vitali, who hosts a FOX Sports Radio show on Saturdays, is not a fan of Donald Trump attending an NFL game.

Vitali heavily criticized Donald Trump with a post on X. She specifically targeted the high financial cost to taxpayers. Furthermore, she mocked his actual football knowledge regarding the teams playing in the game.

“Millions of taxpayer dollars because he wants to see the ghost of Aaron Rodgers and a UDFA rookie QB that (I guarantee) he doesn’t know the name of?” Vitali wrote on X.
