Trump Tells Giants QB Dart to Ignore the Haters, Claims Jealousy Behind Backlash

When you’re the president of the United States and you want to give someone a pep talk, you’ve got options. Donald Trump chose Truth Social—and he made it count.

On Saturday, POTUS fired off a message to New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, thanking him for introducing him at a rally in New York earlier in May. But Trump didn’t just say thanks and call it a day. He went full motivational speaker mode, framing the backlash Dart has faced as pure, unadulterated jealousy from what Trump called the“Radical Left Lunatics.”

Here’s where it gets interesting: Trump’s pep talk hinged on a claim that’s been circulating online but isn’t actually verified fact. He told Dart that his jersey became the most-sold jersey right after the rally appearance—a rumor that reportedly originated from a social media satire account, not from any official team or league source. Whether or not that claim holds up, Trump’s message was clear: you’re winning, they’re losing, so don’t sweat the noise.

And there’s plenty of noise. Dart’s teammate Abdul Carter publicly expressed his displeasure with Dart appearing at the rally, which kicked off a locker room conversation that reportedly extended beyond just the two of them. The Giants organization had to work through the tension, and according to reports, things have been smoothed over—though Dart seems ready to keep his political views close to the vest going forward.

Trump ended his Truth Social message with all caps energy:“YOU ARE A WINNER — THEY ARE ALL LOSERS. I’ll see you in the White House! President DJT.”It’s the kind of unfiltered support that either fires someone up or makes them wish they’d stayed out of the spotlight entirely. Given the internal team friction Dart’s already navigated, we’d bet he’s leaning toward the latter.
