Does Donald Trump know the words to the national anthem? You be the judge
President Donald Trump was the topic du jour before the Alabama-Georgia national championship game on Monday. One of the biggest moments came cameras panned to Trump as the Zac Brown Band performed the national anthem. The president was definitely mouthing *something* … but were they really the words to the anthem?

Many supporters were proud to see the president on the field:

But much of the Twitterverse seemed to think he downright didn’t know the words to the nation’s anthem and took the opportunity to troll:

Donald Trump clearly did not know the words to the National Anthem but was mad about people kneeling for it….
