At halftime of Super Bowl LI, the Atlanta Falcons were already blowing past the New England Patriots. The Falcons had a 21-3 lead, an unexpected start against the favored Patriots. Tom Brady got sacked multiple times and threw an interception that led to a Falcons player running the ball for a touchdown on the play. But as it became a running joke going into the Super Bowl that the Patriots were President Donald Trump’s team ― given the president’s friendship with the Patriot’s owner, coach and Brady, as well as Trump’s prediction the Patriots would win ― people on Twitter quickly began making Electoral College jokes. Of course, despite losing the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes, Trump won the electoral votes to end up with the American presidency.
