Former president, and current republican nominee in this year’s election, Donald Trump is headed to the biggest game in the college football world this weekend when No. 4 Alabama hosts No. 2 Georgia.
But he won’t be able to escape the shadow of the campaign of his opponent, Kamala Harris, despite the game being played in a deep red southern state.
We mean that literally.
As Trump makes himself comfortable at Bryant-Denny Stadium, CNN’s Kaitlin Collins reports the Harris campaign has hired a small plane to fly a banner over Tuscaloosa mocking Trump’s refusal to participate in a second debate against Harris.
When Trump is at tonight’s Alabama-Georgia game, the Harris campaign has arranged to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa with a banner declaring, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.” https://t.co/xKzdQvJj1B

The banner will reportedly read “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate”.
Both campaigns are focusing on college football this Saturday. While Trump is in Alabama to see the Crimson Tide face the Bulldogs, Harris’ running mate Tim Walz attended Michigan-Minnesota at the Big House and wisely declined to predict a winner.
We’ll see how Harris prodding Trump in Alabama plays out in the long run.
