CComparisons between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have reached such extreme levels that fans are also paying close attention to both players’ activities on social media and the impact their photos create. A few days ago, it was Messi who caused a revolution on Instagram by posting a photo from Camp Nou and writing that he missed home. Now, the photo of Cristiano Ronaldo alongside Donald Trump has also caused a lot of attention.
Although both players are still active and preparing for the next World Cup, they are still competing off the field, and in this case it’s about who will generate more interaction on social networks, making it seem more like a competition between fans than the players themselves. Messi at the Camp Nou and CR7 at the Santiago Bernabéu are controversial images, but there appears to be a clear winner.
Photos of Cristiano Ronaldo and Donald Trump are not beyond Messi
A few days ago, Cristiano Ronaldo traveled to the United States for an event he was invited to as part of the Saudi Arabian delegation, which was also attended by various celebrities including Elon Musk and Gianni Infantino. Cr7 was part of a select group invited as influencers and published photos and messages on their social networks.
The Portuguese striker’s posing alongside his wife and Donald Trump at the White House created a huge buzz on social media, with an incredible number of posts on Instagram, but the number still exceeds the record when Messi posed for pictures at the new Camp Nou.
Messi’s photo has 28 million likes, Ronaldo and Trump’s photo has 22 million likes.

Not only that, but Cristiano Ronaldo’s appearance at the White House caused a huge shock. There were several celebrities, but the Portuguese star’s involvement in politics was surprising and prompted all sorts of comments.
Upon arriving at the event, CR7 first expressed his gratitude for the invitation. “Mr. President, thank you for the invitation and the warm welcome you and the First Lady have given us and my future wife Georgina.”
“Each of us has something valuable to offer and I am ready to play my part to inspire new generations to build a future defined by courage, responsibility and lasting peace,” Ronaldo said.
