Trump’s Unbelievably Petty Inauguration Day Complaint Caught On Camera In 'Melania' Doc
HuffPost
Trump suggested that the big event, which typically takes place in early to mid-January, was scheduled to overshadow him.
President Donald Trump groused that the college football national title game was trying to intercept his time in the headlines ahead of his inauguration last year, according to a scene from the “Melania” documentary film.
The scene, which sports site Awful Announcing highlighted after a clip from the film made the rounds on social media this month, shows Trump and the first lady go over plans for the inauguration when he stops to remark on the College Football Playoff National Championship, which was set for Jan. 20, 2025.
“We are competing with the championship game. How did that happen?” asked Trump, who recently claimed he has “a lot of good friends” in college football in the same interview where he fumbled questions on the sport.
The title game, which typically takes place on a Monday night in early to mid-January, happened to fall on the same day that the president was set to take the oath of office.
The date of the game was announced back in May 2023, a time Trump was leading a crowded field of GOP candidates and over a year removed from the Republican Party selecting him as the nominee for president.
