Potential Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has the solution for Seattle Seahawks fans unsure of where to direct their anger for the team’s Super Bowl loss: Blame President Obama.
Trump jokingly speculated on Twitter following the game that Obama must have made the call that resulted in the Seahawks’ failed pass attempt — and the New England Patriots’ victory — at the end of the fourth quarter.
It must have been President Obama that called in what will go down as the DUMBEST PLAY IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL. Same thought process!

“It must have been President Obama that called in what will go down as the DUMBEST PLAY IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL,” wrote Trump. “Same thought process!”
As of Monday morning, the tweet had accumulated over 3,000 retweets and favorites.
Politics and professional sports intersect yet again.
Trump insisted recently that he is “very seriously” considering a bid for the White House in 2016.
