President Donald Trump attended the 126th Army-Navy game on December 13, 2025, where he announced plans to sign an executive order ensuring an exclusive four-hour broadcast slot for the game to prevent scheduling conflicts with postseason football. Trump emphasized the significance of the Army-Navy game as a vital American tradition, asserting it must remain protected from commercial influences. The Navy Midshipmen won the game 17-16 against the Army Black Knights. Trump also plans to attend the upcoming College Football Playoff championship in Miami.
