Green Bay Packers legend Brett Favre has never been one to shy away from his political leanings. While current Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes refuses to endorse any candidates, Favre has always been outspoken about his support of conservative politicians around the country.
Leading up to the 2024 Presidential Election, Favre was a keynote speaker at Donald Trump‘s rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Indeed, he and the current President of the United States are golfing buddies from time to time.
Of course, it was Favre’s friendship with former Mississippi Republican governor Phil Bryant that led to some concerning allegations that the Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback stole millions of dollars from the state’s welfare fund. Favre was never convicted, nor even indicted, for any crimes.
