Most Trump supporters are clearly visible, thanks to their bright red MAGA hats. However, some supporters of the Apprentice host-turned-politician are more low-key and not as vocal about their political stance.
Patrick and Brittany Mahomes have never publicly endorsed Donald Trump, but time and time again, they are branded Trump supporters.
More recently, it was a post Brittany liked on social media that has everyone convinced the NFL couple are voting for Trump in 2024.
So, what is the truth?
Why are people wondering if Patrick and Brittany Mahomes support Trump?
Back in 2020, when Patrick won the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers there was a quote attributed to Patrick regarding the team's visit to the White House.
"I really hope it's not change. I've been looking forward to meeting with President Trump for a while," the quote read alongside a photo of Patrick in his Chiefs uniform. "That might offend some people but oh, well."
Whether or not Patrick Mahomes supports Trump isn't known, there is no evidence to suggest he ever actually said what the meme is claiming he did.
No social media posts from the athlete suggest he's a fan. There are no recorded interviews where he went on record saying that quote, or even text message screenshots.
In fact, Instagram has flagged the post as misleading, blurring it out so users couldn't see the falsified quote.
One of Patrick's representatives at Steinberg Sports and Entertainment, Julia Faron, who is vice president of media and public relations, had confirmed in an email with The Daily Caller that he never made the comment.
This is what Patrick actually said about visiting the White House:
"Obviously, keeping the politics out of it — it’s an incredible opportunity that you see growing up with teams that win championships, getting invited to the White House and just being invited to the White House in general. But that’s something that I will talk about with my guys and really make the right decision that represents us, represents Kansas City and the Chiefs in the right way."
The Chiefs did not end up visiting the White House in 2020 but did make the trip in 2024.
Brittany Mahomes caught liking a Trump posted on Instagram.
Fast forward, and in August 2024, Patrick's wife Brittany liked a post supporting Trump's 2024 platform, and a screenshot was circulated on social media, once again reigniting rumors that the Mahomes are Trump supporters.
The post in question read, "2024 GOP Platform... Make America Great Again," and listed "Stop the migrant invasion," "Carry out the largest deportation operation in American history," and "Keep men OUT of women's sports" and policy points.
Many reacted to Brittany's endorsement with surprise, while others stood in solidarity with the mother-of-two.
"People surprised that Brittany Mahomes is a Trump supporter like there was never a doubt in my mind who she supported I took one look at the woman and knew," one person wrote on X.
Another added, "Let me get this right. Steph Curry can endorse Kamala Harris live at the DNC but people are shaming Brittany Mahomes because she liked a Trump post."
Brittany also seemingly had a response to the backlash, sharing a quote on haters on her Instagram.
"I mean honestly," she wrote. "To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There's no evidence your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well."
