President Trump hopes to see Eagles at White House with invitation ‘absolutely’ on way

The Eagles will be getting their invite to the White House.

While speaking from inside the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump told reporters the White House would be extending to the Super Bowl champs, seemingly putting an end to speculation surrounding an Eagles visit. 

“They will be [extended an invitation]. We haven’t yet, but we will be,” Trump said. “I thought it was a great performance by them and, absolutely, they’ll be extended that invitation. … We’re going to do that sometime today and they deserve to be down here, and we hope to see them.”

The topic of whether the Eagles would be visiting 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. after they captured a Super Bowl тιтle earlier this month had been a H๏τ topic of conversation in recent days after aggregators on social media resurfaced an old report by the U.S. Sun. 

The report suggested that the Eagles would definitively not go to the White House if they won the Super Bowl with Trump in office. 

However, it appeared no such decision had been made and a White House official told The Post on Monday that invites “haven’t even gone out.” 

An Eagles source told Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer that the team “would be honored to visit the White House. It’s one of the things we had looked forward to doing and we look forward to receiving the invitation.”

Whether professional sports teams visited the White House became a H๏τ-ʙuттon issue during Trump’s first term in office, but the controversy largely simmered down. 

The Florida Panthers were the first team to visit in Trump’s second term when they celebrated their Stanley Cup victory at the White House earlier this month. 

After the Eagles won a Super Bowl in 2018, a number of players had said they would not make the trip to Washington, D.C., due to Trump’s stance on player protests during the national anthem.

Trump had been in attendance for the Super Bowl, becoming the first sitting president to be on hand for the big game. 

Prior to the Panthers, the Nationals were the last pro team to visit the White House during a Trump presidency.
