President Donald Trump says that he prefers that his 12-year-old son Barron play other sports than football, calling it a "dangerous sport"
Trump told CBS News in an interview taped before Super Bowl LIII that there are several concerns with his son playing the sport.
Trump adds that his son prefers to play soccer and was asked if he would let his son play football.
“It’s very, it’s very tough question,” Trump said. “It’s a very good question. If he wanted to? Yes. Would I steer him that way? No, I wouldn’t.”
“I just don’t like the reports that I see coming out having to do with football—I mean, it’s a dangerous sport and I think it’s- I- it’s- really tough, I thought the equipment would get better, and it has,” he said.
