Patrick Mahomes says he doesn’t support Trump or Harris

Mahomes’ position sets him apart from his wife, Brittany.

The former soccer player came under fire after she briefly praised and then trashed an Instagram post by former President Donald Trump on the “2024 GOP platform.”

To be sure, Brittany Mahomes did not officially endorse Trump. However, she hit back at her critics, calling them “haters” with “deep-rooted issues” in a previous Instagram story.

Still, that didn’t stop Trump from expressing his gratitude to her.

“I want to thank the beautiful Brittany Mahomes for standing up for me so strongly,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Sept. 4.

“It’s nice to see someone who loves our country and wants to save it from DOOM.”

Mahomes, however, says he is determined to stay above the political fray. The star quarterback told reporters Wednesday that he was unfazed by Trump’s praise for Brittany.

“It’s in political times, people will use things here and there. But I can’t let that affect how I go about my business every day and live my life and try to live it as best I can,” Mahomes said.

And on Wednesday, Trump called Brittany Mahomes a “big MAGA fan” during an interview with Fox News’ morning show, “‘Fox & Friends.’

The praise came after Trump was asked about Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris.

“Well, I actually like Mrs. Mahomes a lot more, if you want to know the truth. She’s a big Trump fan. I wasn’t a Taylor Swift fan,” Trump said Wednesday.

“I love Brittany. I think Brittany is great. Brittany got a lot of news last week. She’s a huge MAGA fan. She’s the one I like way more than Taylor Swift.”

Swift, who is currently dating Patrick’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce, has often been spotted hanging out with Brittany Mahomes during Chiefs games.

On Sunday, the pop star was photographed hugging the quarterback’s wife while attending the US Open.

Representatives for Trump and Harris did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent outside regular business hours.
