On Twitter, he called Brady’s sort-of endorsement “a great honor from somebody that knows how to win!” Brady later insisted that his words were “taken out of context” and that his comments didn’t amount to a formal endorsement. Trump has also been keen to brag of his friendship with Brady. I know that.”Įarlier that month, one of Trump’s ‘Make America Great Again’ hats was displayed prominently in Brady’s locker. “There’d be a putting green on the White House lawn. “I hope so – that would be great,” Brady said, when asked if he wished Trump to ascend to the top job. I’ve always enjoyed his company.”Ī few months prior, Brady, 39, explicitly said it “would be great” if Trump were to become president. That came along with winning the Super Bowl. He’s always been so supportive of me – for the last 15 years, since I judged a beauty pageant for him, which was one of the very first things that I did that thought was really cool. “Donald is a good friend of mine,” Brady said then. Tom, why so coy! You and Donald go way back! Remember when you told WEEI-FM last December that “Donald is a good friend of mine” and that “I support all my friends”? And that you judged one of Trump’s beauty pageants, which you called “really cool”? We just hope Trump has a good support system around him when he hears what his pal is seemingly sort of attempting to almost say.A special thanks to the guy who asked Tom Brady about Donald Trump locker room talk and the end of his press conference #WBZ #Patriots /sCx59IArsw- Joe Giza October 12, 2016 Not going to respond!Ī powerful indictment. He has his own flaws and he’s not gonna insult anybody, and he’s not responsible for what other people say, right? Yes. Got it? He doesn’t see eye to eye with anyone. And he’s not here to point out anyone else’s flaws. So, uh, you see? There are things he agrees with his wife about, and things that he doesn’t. So if people want to say things that I said or that I’m about, that’s up to them, and I’m not going to respond to all those things all the time either.” And I’m not responsible for what other people say. I love her to death, but we don’t always see eye to eye. There are things I agree with my wife about. I’m not here to point out anyone else’s flaws. He continued, presumably in one breath: “And my personality isn’t ever one to insult anybody. Barstool Sports writer John Feitelberg tweeted a photo of Brady’s locker Saturday, and in it appears to be the trademark Make America Great Again’’ hat sported by the GOP frontrunner on.

“I think just mischaracterized a lot,” Brady told Variety, regarding the idea that he had a close relationship with Trump. Now, just as Peter (from the Bible) did before him, Brady has denied his Christ a third time. “In fact, I think about 40 percent of people still don’t think we won. (“Not a lot of people think that we could have won,” he said. And in 2021, after the Bucs won the Super Bowl, he joked with Joe Biden at the White House about Trump’s loss.
