I thought Trump was going to exit stage – but he wanted to stay

As a die-hard Chelsea fan, I’ve seen my fair share of surprises on the pitch, but nothing prepared me for the spectacle that unfolded in New Jersey. Picture this: Chelsea, fresh off their Club World Cup victory, celebrating in style. The champagne was flowing, the fans were singing, and the players were basking in their glory. And then, out of nowhere, enters the most unexpected guest of all – former US President Donald Trump.

Now, I know what you’re thinking. What on earth was Trump doing at a Chelsea celebration? Was he lost? Did he think it was a rally? The truth is, nobody really knows. But there he was, larger than life, with that unmistakable hair and a grin that could rival the Cheshire Cat. It was as if he had mistaken Stamford Bridge for Mar-a-Lago.

At first, I thought he was just going to make a quick appearance, maybe shake a few hands, and exit stage left. But no, Trump was in it for the long haul. He mingled with the players, posed for selfies, and even attempted to join in on a chant or two. I swear I heard him trying to belt out “Blue is the Colour” – though it sounded more like “Make Chelsea Great Again.”

The players, to their credit, took it all in stride. Thiago Silva looked bemused, Mason Mount was in stitches, and N’Golo Kanté, ever the gentleman, offered Trump a slice of the victory cake. It was a surreal scene, one that will be etched in the annals of football history.

As the night wore on, I kept expecting Trump to make his exit, but he seemed to be having the time of his life. Maybe he was drawn to the winning spirit of Chelsea, or perhaps he just couldn’t resist the allure of a good party. Whatever the reason, it was a night to remember.

In the end, as the celebrations wound down and the players headed back to the hotel, Trump finally made his exit, leaving behind a trail of bewildered fans and a story that will be told for years to come. So here’s to Chelsea, the Club World Cup champions, and to the most unexpected guest of all. Who knew football could bring together such a motley crew?
