It’s known that New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft is good friends with President Donald Trump, and what do you get the guy who has everything? How about a Super Bowl ring.
According to former White House Communications director Anthony Scaramucci, Kraft gifted Trump a ring from the Patriots’ Super Bowl 52 victory against the Falcons in February.
Scarmucci told @rslashpatriots, a Twitter account for the New England Patriots’ subreddit, that Robert Kraft gave Trump a Super Bowl 51 ring in a direct message.
Accoording to @Scaramucci, Robert Kraft gave Donald Trump his Super Bowl 51 ring. Is this my first #leak? pic.twitter.com/HnKMYTA0yb

I asked him if he minded and he said it would be public knowledge soon anyway. https://t.co/vEPNLMwmO4

The mention of Russian President Vladimir Putin refers to when Putin stole Kraft’s Super Bowl ring in 2005.
The account operator insisted to NESN.com through a direct message that the DMs from Scaramucci were, in fact, real, sending another screenshot showing they recently were in contact Scaramucci. Scaramucci follows 180,000 people, including @rslashpatriots. The account originally DM’d Scaramucci as a joke to tweet out a screenshot of their question about getting Kraft’s Super Bowl ring back from Russian President Vladimir Putin that was taken in 2005. They said they didn’t expect Scaramucci to respond. We’ll see if this really does become “public knowledge” soon. Scaramucci was fired as White House Communications Director 10 days after being appointed.
