Jalen Hurts' Response to Donald Trump-White House Question Is Going Viral (Video)
Jalen Hurts, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and Super Bowl MVP, has gained significant attention for his non-committal responses to questions about Donald Trump. His team has accepted an invitation to the White House to celebrate their 2025 Super Bowl victory, prompting questions about his attendance. At a Time100 gala, Hurts was asked if he would attend the White House visit and responded with an ambiguous 'Umm,' accompanied by an uncomfortable demeanor. This mirrors a previous instance where he was asked if he felt pressured by Trump's attendance at the Super Bowl, to which he replied, 'No ma'am.' His responses have sparked widespread discussion among fans and celebrities, highlighting his perceived lack of support for Trump.
Jalen Hurts, recognized for his excellence as the Super Bowl MVP, has been thrust into the spotlight due to his reactions to questions regarding Donald Trump.
The Philadelphia Eagles, of which Hurts is a key player, have been invited to the White House following their Super Bowl victory, a visit traditionally associated with celebrating sports achievements.
During a Time100 gala, Hurts was queried about his participation in the White House visit, to which he responded with a hesitant 'Umm,' displaying visible discomfort and a slight grin.
This interaction is reminiscent of a prior moment before the Super Bowl when Hurts dismissed feeling pressured by Trump's announced presence at the event with a succinct 'No ma'am.'
