NFL star Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany, has sparked controversy by liking a social media post from Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. The post outlined the GOP’s 20-point platform, which includes border control, canceling the electric vehicle mandate, and Trump’s hope for “new and record levels of success.”
Brittany has doubled down on her approval of Trump’s post by retweeting another from preacher and author Shane Pruitt, which emphasized the importance of kindness and respect in disagreements. The pregnant mother-of-two also hit back at her critics in a fiery response over the weekend.

Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes has joined LeBron James’s ‘More Than a Vote’ campaign to increase African American voter turnout. He has also pledged to begin a voter registration and involvement project in Kansas City. Despite this, he has maintained a neutral stance on political matters, emphasizing the importance of individual research and decision-making.
In an interview with TIME magazine, Mahomes said, “I don’t want to pressure anyone to vote for a certain president. I want people to use their voice, whoever they believe in. I want them to do the research.”
The Chiefs have been invited to the White House by President Biden the past two years to commemorate their Super Bowl victories. However, Missouri is a predominantly red state, and the majority of Jackson County, where Kansas City is located, voted Democrat in 2020.
