Trump posts an AI-generated photo of himself as Steelers player number 47 ahead of his appearance at the game

The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't need much help dealing with the New York Jets on Sunday, but former President Donald Trump was ready when needed.

The Steelers beat the Jets 37-15 on Sunday night in the presence of Trump, who was in the Pittsburgh area over the weekend.

Trump held a rally in nearby Latrobe on Saturday that was attended by former Steelers stars Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell. Twenty-four hours later, the trio attended the NFL action in a suite.

Before the trip to Acrisure Stadium, Trump posted an AI-generated photo of himself wearing a black Steelers jersey with pads and the number 47.

When Steelers fans spotted Trump at the game, a loud chant of “USA!” filled the stadium.

Before the game, Steelers Hall of Famers Jerome Bettis and “Mean” Joe Greene, as well as Franco Harris' family, publicly supported Trump's opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Brown was seen before the game wearing dark MAGA gear and throwing away old Steelers “Terrible Towels,” which were makeshift Trump/Vance items.

Steelers Nation still loves Brown after he developed into a superstar receiver with them after being drafted out of Central Michigan in 2010.

Brown made seven Pro Bowls with the Steelers, including six straight from 2013 to 2018, and led the league in receiving touchdowns twice (2014, 2017) and receiving touchdowns (2018).
