Donald Trump will make history on Sunday by becoming the first sitting U.S. president to attend the Super Bowl.
As if there weren't already enough betting options for Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, some books have released Donald Trump odds. Those odds relate to his FOX News interview before kickoff as well as what the Commander in Chief may do during the course of the Big Game.
Here are my three favorite Donald Trump bets for Super Bowl 59 on Sunday, February 9.
How many times will Donald Trump be shown on the Super Bowl LIX live broadcast?
Number | Odds |
---|---|
Over 1.5 | -160 |
Under 1.5 | +120 |
This is my favorite bet on the board for Donald Trump at Super Bowl 59, and I'm surprised it's not juiced more than -160. It's pretty much guaranteed that he'll be shown on screen at least once. After that, it's a long game with plenty of cutaway shots and at least one of them has to feature president, especially if they can capture one of his trademark scowl or fist pump reactions to a big play.
Pick: Over 1.5 appearances (-160)

Will Trump tweet during the game?
Outcome | Odds |
---|---|
Yes | -115 |
No | -125 |
There are also odds for "how many times Trump will tweet?" from two hours before the game until two hours after, with the O/U at 1.5 and the Over juiced to -115. However, the truth is that the president hasn't posted on X as much since coming back to the platform, often preferring to use Truth Social. Matter of fact, Trump posted on X just twice on Friday and three times on Thursday.
I'm expecting him to post once during the game, but wouldn't count on him posting any more than that.
Pick: Yes (-115)

Who will Trump mention first in his FOX interview: Patrick Mahomes or Jalen Hurts?
Player | Odds |
---|---|
Patrick Mahomes | -300 |
Jalen Hurts | +200 |
This is juiced to -300, but if Trump mentions either quarterback, Patrick Mahomes seems like the obvious choice to get a shout out. When asked who he thought would win the Super Bowl earlier in the week, Trump responded by saying, "I don't want to say but there's a certain quarterback that seems to be a pretty good winner."
Trump also congratulated Mahomes and his wife Brittany on the birth of their baby daughter on Truth Social yesterday, which was a bit strange considering that the couple announced the news three weeks ago. Trump has praised Brittany Mahomes in the past, ostensibly due to her own support of his posts on social media.
There is also the possibility that Trump still harbors ill feelings towards the Eagles since most of the team refused to come to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory in 2018. Either way, it seems far more likely that Trump will mention the consensus best player in the world in Mahomes before talking about Jalen Hurts.
Pick: Mahomes (-300)
