President Trump is currently expected to attend the Alabama-LSU game this Saturday, I'm told. No word on my whereabouts yet but stay tuned.

Trump recently made a trip to Game 5 of the World Series, where he was roundly booed by the crowd. He got a similarly chilly reception at UFC 244 over the weekend. If he’s looking for a sporting event where he may get a warmer reception, an Alabama game is a pretty solid bet considering he carried the state by 28 points in 2016.
As for the game, it’s certainly another distraction that Nick Saban and his dislike of “rat poison” may find a little bit annoying.
