Brittany Mahomes got caught up in political backlash after appearing to like a social media post supporting Donald Trump. Patrick Mahomes hasn’t received the same since he decided not to make his political affiliation known to the public.
What makes the situation incredibly awkward is Brittany Mahomes’s friendship with Taylor Swift, who has previously aligned herself with the Democratic party.
Just when things were starting to die down, President Donald Trump decided to lean on the support he has gotten from Patrick Mahomes’s wife and spoke out on it.
Trump sent out a statement directed to Brittany Mahomes for defending him.

Last month, Brittany faced criticism online after appearing to like an Instagram post from former President and current Republican nominee Donald Trump outlining his policy positions ahead of the November elections.
The 28-year-old appeared to like several comments on her most recent Instagram post that indicated support for Trump as she faced major backlash online.
Brittany Mahomes Defends Her Political Stance Amid Backlash
Shortly after defending her decision to like Donald Trump’s Instagram post, Brittany Mahomes decided to send a strong message to her critics.
The model and wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes shared a post from Christian blogger Shane Pruitt on Instagram Stories that read, “Contrary to the tone of the world today…You can disagree with someone, and still love them. You can have differing views, and still be kind.” Mahomes added, “Read that again!” to the Story.
While that may seem like a reasonable request, many people around the Country simply cannot disagree with others without tearing them down in the process.
Brittany used to let backlash get to her, but now she has learned to stop caring.
