Chiefs’ Starter Endorses Donald Trump; Fans Erupt On Social Media

Kansas City Chiefs have had a dominant and impressive start this season. In order to achieve a three-peat, however, the Patrick Mahomes-led team needs to continue to keep the focus on the field.

There has been a number of off-the-field stories surrounding Kansas City this year, and now there is another one.

In a video on Twitter (X):

In an interview with Fox News, Butker answered a question about whether he would support Donald Trump. In response, Butker said, “I want us to fight for the unborn, for those most vulnerable.”

According to Nate Lunak of Total Pro Sports:

This is not the only Republican politician that Butker has openly supported.

He has also thrown himself on the front lines to support Republican Missouri Senator Josh Hawley in his efforts to be re-elected.

“So thankful for Sen. Hawley for his pro-life stance,” Butker said, according to KSHB“For him fighting for strong borders. We have to protect this country and get it in order.”

Of course, that pro-life stance was a strong point in Butker’s support of Donald Trump in the video shown above.

Butker now just becomes one of the many athletes who feel that it is necessary for them to use their platform to spread and talk about what they think is right in the political world.
