Sports and politics don’t usually mix, but that wasn’t the case on Wednesday, September 11, when Donald Trump brought Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes into the presidential spotlight.
One day following the debate on ABC between former President Trump and sitting Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump sat down for an interview with Fox News. The interviewer asked Trump for his reaction to the news that worldwide musical megastar Taylor Swift had publicly endorsed Harris as her candidate after viewing the debate. “I actually like Mrs. Mahomes much better [than Swift], if you want to know the truth. She’s a big Trump fan,” Trump responded, per USA Today. “I like Brittany. I think Brittany is great.”
Brittany Mahomes and Swift have been photographed in public together and have viewed Kansas City Chiefs games side by side, as the former is married to the quarterback while the latter has a very prominent and public relationship with Chiefs tight end and fellow celebrity Travis Kelce.
Patrick Mahomes responded to Trump’s comments later on Wednesday, saying it did not bother him that Trump publicly named Mahomes’ wife as one of his fans. “No, I mean I think at the end of the day, it’s about me and my family and how we treat other people,” Mahomes said, per USA Today. “And I think [what] you see is that Brittany does a lot in the community. I do a lot … in the community to help bring people up and give people other opportunities to use their voice. And so it’s in the political times, people are going to use stuff here and there. But I can’t let that affect how I go about my business every single day and live my life and try to live it to the best of my ability.”
