Outkick host Dan Dakich lambasted fans at the Washington Commanders-Detroit Lions game for booing President Donald Trump while he swore in new members of the U.S. military, saying it was “reprehensible behavior” that showed they are nothing more than “horrible” humans.
Dakich did not mince words when he joined America’s Newsroom on Fox News on Monday morning, one day after the president was loudly jeered.
“Think about this, if you booed folks being sworn in to protect us, to give of themselves to us, you are a horrible human being,” Dakich said. “You’re awful, you’re ridiculous.”
He added to do it in front children, like the young fan Trump gave a presidential challenge coin to, was even worse. “That’s reprehensible behavior,” Dakich said.
If you missed it, Trump was blitzed by a chorus of boos while conducting a swearing in ceremony at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland. Dakich said if you hate the president, that is fine, but to boo him at that time was disrespectful to the troops.
“That’s jack*ssery,” Dakich ended his rant by saying.
America’s Newsroom co-host Bill Hemmer agreed with Dakich, saying a moment earlier the fans showed “no class.”
The cold reception probably should not have come as much of a surprise, though, considering how the surrounding areas voted. Former Vice President Kamala Harris (D) won more than 90% of votes in Washington, D.C., and she also received 62% of the votes in Maryland. Harris also scored a victory in Virginia, although that margin was much smaller.
Trump, on a lighter note, joined the Fox broadcast after he was booed and joked about his high school football career.
When analyst Jonathan Vilma asked Trump how many touchdowns he scored while playing tight end at New York Military Academy, the president admitted, “I’m not sure I had any,” which drew a laugh from Vilma and announcer Kenny Albert.
