As the Kansas City Chiefs prepare for their long-overdue White House visit to celebrate their Super Bowl LIV victory, former President Donald Trump has stirred the pot once again with comments that could put a damper on the event. At the center of the controversy: pop superstar Taylor Swift and her high-profile relationship with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce .
Donald Trump’s pointed remarks during Eagles' White House visit may have lasting impact
During a recent ceremony honoring the Philadelphia Eagles at the White House, Donald Trump used the moment to revive an old rivalry. Referencing the Super Bowl where Swift was booed on camera, he quipped, “I saw it in person. I was there with Taylor Swift. How did that thing turn out? How did that thing turn out?” The comment drew laughs from some of the players, but for Swift’s partner, Kelce, the timing and tone may have struck a nerve.
The Chiefs, who did not get to visit the White House in 2020 due to COVID-19, are finally slated to make their official appearance. However, Trump’s remarks risk overshadowing the celebration and igniting unnecessary drama—especially given his history of jabs at Swift, including his past comment: “I hate Taylor Swift,” after she publicly endorsed Kamala Harris.
Once cordial, the Trump-Kelce dynamic now faces uncertainty
What makes Trump’s latest remarks even more surprising is the shift from previous interactions. Prior to the Super Bowl, Trump had publicly praised Kelce on Truth Social, calling him “an incredible running back and the best tight end in football (ever!).”
Kelce responded diplomatically, saying, “It’s a great honor, I think no matter who the president is... it’s the biggest game of my life and to have the president there. It’s the greatest country in the world, so it’s great.” That mutual respect now seems at risk of unraveling.
As speculation grows around the Chiefs’ upcoming White House visit, all eyes will be on whether Travis Kelce chooses to attend. The event, meant to be a unifying celebration of athletic achievement, may now become mired in political controversy.

Given the delicate nature of the relationship between Trump and Swift—and by extension Kelce—this latest flare-up adds unnecessary tension to what should be a moment of recognition and pride. For now, the question remains: will personal loyalty trump presidential tradition?
