Former President Donald Trump on Sunday attended Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 7 game against the New York Jets at a packed Acrisure Stadium. As soon as the Republican presidential nominee arrived in his box, thousands of attendees chanted 'USA, USA'. The 78-year-old, who hinted at his support for the home team, waved at them.

"He taught me that true greatness is achieved by being a part of a team and that leadership is defined by the actions taken to help the whole team succeed.
