England striker Harry Kane revealed he played golf with President Donald Trump 18 months ago — and the left lost its mind.
“I played all right,” Kane told reporters. “He invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach. When the President invites you somewhere… it was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and obviously play golf with him.”
Kane praised Trump’s golf game.
“His golf is pretty good. I hope I can play golf as good as him when I am his age, that’s for sure. So, a unique experience, I was just grateful that he invited me down to play with him.”
After England’s victory over Mexico, Trump posted on Truth Social: “Harry Kane of England is a GREAT player!!!”
“If the President invites you to play golf, you go. That is what respect for the office demands.”
The friendly relationship between the two sparked outrage from leftists online — including some of Kane’s own countrymen who suddenly decided the star striker wasn’t worthy of their support.
“I’ve lost a bit of respect for him. What the fuck,” one user wrote.
Another complained: “disappointed in Harry here ngl. First time I’ve lost some respect for him.”
One critic went full unhinged: “Ewwww I can’t believe that Harry Kane agrees with his politics, he is talking as if he met his celebrity crush. I guess u really can judge a book by its cover cuz he looks like the kind of person that would support Trump.”
The same user then attacked Kane for playing alongside Tottenham teammate Son Heung-min while “praising someone that hates immigrants.”
But plenty of fans pushed back against the outrage mob.
“Only those with TDS would see this as anything other than a great opportunity for Kane to spend a little time with the U.S. President. Probably a once in a lifetime opportunity,” one defender wrote.
Another mocked the critics: “Random guys from their parents’ basement lost respect for Kane. How will Kane live with himself now?”
England and Harry Kane take on Norway at 4 PM EST.
