Several fans at a New York Yankees baseball game Sunday held up a giant “Re-elect Trump 2020” banner.
While the scene was met with some middle fingers and “boos” from the crowd, it also elicited cheers and whistles.

The banner also had Trump’s re-election slogan “Keep America Great” printed on it.
Politics and sports have intersected in recent months, especially since the NFL and President Trump have been at odds regarding national anthem protests.

With the 2018 midterm elections coming up in November, the political scene has seen little focus on the 2020 presidential campaign and election cycle, even though Trump has participated in many campaign-like rallies since taking office.
However, the administration confirmed last summer that Trump will be running for re-election.
