Former NFL star Le’Veon Bell described his opportunity to speak at a recent campaign rally in support of former President Donald Trump, gushing about being brought on stage and then catching a game between the Steelers and Jets with Trump. Bell shared his experience in a video he shared on social media on Wednesday. It’s exciting to see so many people with big platforms and cultural influence finally come to understand what’s at stake in the current election and boldly come out in support of Trump and his vision for the preservation of our liberties and a functioning economy.
“I had fought, I had played in big football games – playoff, regular season, Super Bowls – I’ve never had a feeling I had two days ago at that rally when I was behind that mic in front of America. Maybe more than just America, bro. I was in front of millions of people, bro,” Bell stated in the video.
“Let me tell you how real Trump is. One, I didn’t know I was going to be called up on the stage. … When Trump went up there and talked bro, I had no idea, zero clue, he was going to call me on stage. Not only did he call me on stage, shook my hand, talked to me a little bit, but I was thinking that was going to be it. I’m cool with that! Got my little photo-op … I’m cool. Bro, he like literally looked me right in my face and just backed up (and said), ‘You got anything to say? Say it.’ Basically said, the mic yours. I got so nervous bro! I got shook,” Bell added, according to Fox News.
Bell was thoroughly impressed with the former president and the opportunity he and former Steelers teammate Antonio Brown had to speak to the crowd that gathered to show their support for Trump as the days to the election are winding down.
“Basically, what I’m trying to say is Trump a real one bro. He a real one. He didn’t tell me like he was gonna let me say anything or nothing, he didn’t tell me he was going to call me up. He just did that bro – off the love. I get it, he might wanna win the election or whatever, but I’m trying to tell y’all, he didn’t have to do that. I could’ve messed up everything … That’s why y’all don’t understand is that Trump is a real one,” Bell explained. And that’s why people love the man. He’s real. He’s honest. Despite being a billionaire, he connects with the average, everyday American and understands their plight. Even more, he wants to help solve the problems we face on a daily basis.
Bell explained he was going to the game with Trump and was still astonished it happened in the first place. He said it took the group about eight minutes to get from the airport to Acrisure Stadium.
“Y’all not hearing me. Where I came from, ain’t nobody where I came from doing that,” he stated in the video. You know what else is cool? Trump actually led a change of “U-S-A” during the game the two men attended.
