Trump greets college cheerleaders, band at golf course ahead of Super Bowl

President Trump and first lady Melania Trump on Sunday watched a performance from college cheerleaders and a college band ahead of the Super Bowl.

The Florida Atlantic University pep band and cheerleaders performed for the Trumps at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.

The first couple is hosting a Super Bowl watch party at the golf club before returning to Washington, D.C. They spent the weekend at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

The band performed "Hail to the Chief," "Boogie Wonderland" and "Shut Up and Dance," according to a pool reporter.

FAU does a LOT of climate science research. Them performing for Trump is like the PETA Marching Band playing at the opening of a new Oscar Meyer factory.
