In a Twitter conversation, Scaramucci wrote, “Bob Kraff just gave the president the ring for last years game . the [Vladimir] Putin ring is long gone,” which many took to mean that Kraft gave Trump his personal ring from the Patriots’ victory this past February in Super Bowl LI. That was not quite accurate. Per Patriots spokesman Stacey James, the Patriots did, in fact, give Trump a championship ring, but they had one specially made for him, engraved with Trump’s name. ADVERTISEMENT Scaramucci, in a tweet Tuesday afternoon, acknowledged the ring Trump received wasn’t Kraft’s.
