Here's Why People Are Saying This Donald Trump Super Bowl Picture Is Cursed
Donald Trump was rooting for the Chiefs at the Super Bowl last night.
In an interview on Fox before the game, Trump said Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes "really knows how to win" and complimented his wife because she's a MAGA fan: "I watched this great quarterback who, by the way, has a phenomenal wife. She's a Trump fan, she's a MAGA fan, so I happen to love her."

Ultimately, that was enough to get the Chiefs an endorsement, "I guess you have to say when a quarterback wins as much as he's won, I have to go with Kansas City."
Unfortunately, that didn't work out for him. The Chiefs got shellacked.
So, Trump's Communications Advisor posted this picture of Patrick Mahomes's family meeting Trump before the game.
People are blaming this photo on the Chiefs' loss.
They're calling it the Trump curse.
"It's official: Trump Curse," this person said.
"i'm assuming this is what did it," another person said.
And this person commented, "This is what caused their defeat, and honestly, I'm kinda happy about it."
Then there are the people talking karma.
"Against all odds, karma still exists," one person said.
"Everyone in the photo went home mad as hell and that's a great thing," this person added.
And, of course, we've got the Kendrick Lamar meme.
Even Dionne Warwick joked, "It's almost as if the entire team has been jinxed. I wonder what happened..."
