As the New England Patriots performed a miraculous come-from-behind win to clinch another Super Bowl title, giving quarterback Tom Brady an historic fifth Super Bowl ring, liberals from coast to coast lapsed into despair that anyone close to President Donald Trump could become winners.
As soon as Patriots running back James White stretched over into the end zone to slam the pigskin down for that game-winning touch down, liberals took to Twitter to vent their outrage.
Immediately the hash tag #notmysuperbowlchampion started trending with many slamming Brady and Trump.
I'm protesting #notmysuperbowlchampion

A hashtag that I will use both before and after #SuperBowl51 – #NotMySuperBowlChampion

Naturally, many liberals were crushed by Super Bowl 51 and took to Twitter to lament that it felt just as bad as how they felt on Election Day last November when Trump pulled his own come-from-behind win.
I haven't felt this anxious since 9pm on election night #SuperBowl

same here but at least with the game we have a different winner next year! Not stuck for four years like the other #SuperBowl

Trump won the election and now his favorite team has won the Super Bowl. Let it sink America.

It's like November 8, 2016 all over again. #NotMySuperBowlChampion

This game is literally an analogy of election night #SuperBowl

Why does the #SuperBowl remind me of the 2016 Election 😳

Of course Pats win. This is a year when evil triumphs. Had Harry Potter come out this year, Voldermort would have won.#SuperBowl

Did the Russians hack the Super Bowl, too? Is nothing sacred?
— Amanda Litman (@amandalitman) February 6, 2017
Naturally many, many other Twitter users seemed to enjoy the liberal tears.
