Detroit Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown had a reason for doing President Donald Trump's dance after scoring a TD against the Commanders.

After he scored a nine-yard touchdown, Detroit Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown paid homage to President Donald Trump, doing his viral dance, during their takedown of the Washington Commanders, becoming the latest NFL player to do it.
Following the game, St. Brown was asked if the Trump dance was “premeditated” by reporters. It sounds like he decided to do it after catching wind that the president would be at the game in Landover, Maryland.
“I mean, I heard Trump was gonna be at the game; I don't know how many times the president is gonna be at the game, so [I] just decided to have some fun and do his dance,” St. Brown explained.
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown did President Donald Trump's dance in front of him
St. Brown paid homage to Trump while the president was at the game. Trump attended the game, even joining the broadcast booth for a period in the second half of the game.
Earlier in the year, Trump was at Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, Louisiana. He witnessed the Philadelphia Eagles blow out the Kansas City Chiefs.
St. Brown had a stellar game, catching five passes for 58 yards and a score. Jameson Williams led the team with six catches for 119 yards and a touchdown.
The Lions pounced the Commanders in the game. Jared Goff was efficient, completing 25 of 33 passes for 320 yards and three touchdowns. Jahmyr Gibbs also rushed for 142 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. He also caught a score.
Nine games into the season, St. Brown is fourth in the NFL in receptions (64) and has 693 yards (the fifth-most in the league). He has caught eight touchdowns so far, the second-most in the league.
He is a former fourth-round draft pick by the Lions. In his first season, St. Brown logged over 900 receiving yards and five touchdowns. The following year, he had his first 1,000-yard season. He then had over 1,500 yards and 10 touchdowns in 20023.
Once again, St. Brown is on pace for his fourth-straight 1,000-yard season. He has made the last three Pro Bowls, and he's been named First-team All-Pro in 2023 and 2024.
I guess this is why so many Freepers won't watch the NFL?
There was a story that some fans posted ""Trump gonna deport him back to Germany " on social media. That is apparently a reference to the fact that St. Brown is a citizen of the U.S. and Germany, and speaks German and French, though English is his first language. He was born in California, and lived in the U.S. a his life, but his mother is originally from Germany.
No explanation necessary!
NFL needs more guys like him.
How about because is is the president of the US
People have to realize Biden v
Cheated his way in since the
Y test Trump like he didn’t get elected

“The Lions pounced the Commanders.....”
LOL.
Stupid name for the Washington Red Skins .... Commanders? Of what? Almost like the BB team Crusaders. Dumb.
Like Lamar Jackson?
Some Native Americans are suing the team to bring the name back.
The article does not mention that immediately afterwards, St Brown was assaulted by one of the Washington players.

Was it political?
If enough people called them Washington Commies, it probably wouldn’t be long until they went back to the Redskins.
Bring back the Redskins and Cleveland Indians. Trump dance optional (but it couldn’t hurt). Thats American.
Yeah, so I heard. I hope soon!
I like that. That’s what I’ll call them from now on.
First time since 1978, actually.
Mild form of ‘Struggle Session’ where someone is isolated, mocked and ridiculed until they apologize and join the side of those who mock them.
So, this is where we are? He’s got to explain why he honors our president? F’em!
Sounds fascist.
I did see that they threw up and AI image of Air Force One soaring against a blue sky and passed it off as actual footage of AF1 doing a fly over at the game. I only caught part of the game and don’t know if AF1 actually did a flyover, but what they showed was definitely AI.
