If youre a Trump supporter, you might see the Patriots stunning come-from-behind Superbowl victory as a miracle of hard work and perserverance. If youre a Hillary supporter you might see it as the Falcons simply choking hard in the last quarterof the game.

Such are the days where everything, even the Superbowl, is bogged down in tedious political commentary, especially as Trump is close friends with the Patriots top brass.

As Falcons are the biggest chokers of 2017, they are unsurprisingly being compared to the biggest choker of 2016, Hillary Clinton. In both cases prognosticators gave themchances of winning north of 90 percent, which they completely blew in their own hubris.

Now people on the internet are firing up photoshop to make the connection stick.

Some on Reddit are already blaming the Falcons defeat, not on the fact they could barelyscore points in the second half, but on the Russians, of course. Jill Stein needs to step in and demand a score recount.

Even many prominent liberals were acting the same smug way they did on election night until they started melting down and covering their tracks.

So like everything in American life right now, the Superbowl isa direct analogy of presidential politics. And like after the real election its another win for Trump.
