Donald Trump recalled asking whether quarterback Jaxson Dart was a male model and said he wished he looked like Dart. Trump described Dart as a handsome, beautiful, conservative-looking person and said Dart responded with admiration. Trump also claimed that when Dart faces harassment, he gains more support because more people back him than his critics. Trump referenced criticism Dart received after Dart introduced him at a New York rally, where Trump commented that Dart had legs like tree trunks. NFL linebacker Abdul Carter reacted online, questioning whether the clips were AI, and later said that if Dart aligns with Trump, Carter felt responsible to show teammates and the world that he disagrees.
"Well, first of all, I wish I looked just like Jaxson, said Trump in the clip. I said, Is he a male model, or what?' He's a handsome guy, like a beautiful guy, a, you know, conservative guy. He said, I love you, sir.'"
"So, when Jaxson gets harassed a little bit, he's also loved more because we have more people than they do. And a lot of the people that you think, like people in Los Angeles wealthy people 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.'"
"Here, the president referred to the criticism of Dart after he showed up to introduce Trump at a New York rally last Friday, during which he also observed that the quarterback has legs like tree trunks. Dart's fellow teammate on the New York Giants, NFL linebacker Abdul Carter, wrote on X after seeing clips of the rally in a since-deleted tweet that he thought this sh*t was AI, what we doing man."
"In a follow-up question from reporters this Friday, Carter added, If he chooses to align himself with a man like President Trump, it's my responsibility based on what I believe and what I stand on to not only show my teammates that I'm against that, but to show the world."
