BALTIMORE, Md. — Amidst cheering cadets and weeping midshipmen, President-elect Donald Trump told reporters on Saturday that he was honored to contribute to Army’s win over the Navy team during the 117th Army-Navy game, one of the nation’s oldest and most intense college football rivalries.

“It was a tremendous, tremendous game,” Trump said. “It’s not really great football, but these kids showed a lot of spirit, and I’m glad my presence here was able to give these guys a victory.”

Trump claimed that the internet was flooded with memes about how he was going to make the Army team great again.
