For context, it all started when Brittany, who is married to NFL star Patrick Mahomes, was spotted “liking” one of Trump’s social media posts last month.

On Aug. 13, he shared “The 2024 GOP Platform” to his Instagram page, which includes several talking points that rely on misinformation, bigotry, and/or targeting minorities, such as, “Deport pro-Hamas radicals,” “Keep men OUT of women’s sports,” “Cut federal funding for any school pushing Critical Race Theory,” and “Stop the migrant crime epidemic.”

Before long, numerous screenshots emerged showing that Brittany had “liked” Trump’s post before seemingly unliking it, prompting widespread criticism online.

However, Brittany appeared to double down on her like in an Instagram story post that many interpreted to be a response to the backlash. 

She wrote at the time: “I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”
