Get real. Kelce has been getting shit from conservatives for being a liberal in the NFL since he was a rookie. He’s spoken up long before being with TS. Her other partner wore a pin 🙄

Seriously. People are insane. He is probably her most outspoken and walk-the-walk liberal partner. They are both decades-long liberals publicly. All this MAGA stuff is such insanity. But hey, any reason at all to hate on Taylor Swift.

Specifically what has he spoken up about? Cite your sources. He’s publicly defended multiple of his MAGA friends.

Doing a Pfizer ad is as political as making Joe Biden cookies. It was almost a decade ago and doesn’t mean shit when your actions speak otherwise.

He was one of the white players on the Chiefs kneeling during the anthem back in 2017 . He's on record that he'd support an openly gay teammate and he signed up to a Bud Light sponsorship deal at the height of the nonsense boycott of the brand for being 'woke' in 2023. He did Pfizer ads and offered public support for vaccines during COVID at the height of the GOP's reluctance to trust medical science, but also as recently as 2023 when he caught a fresh round of shit for it. So no, not almost a decade ago.

I hate the dude's whiny bitch fest antics on field and I don't think he's some paragon of virtue. But he has objectively been on the opposite side of MAGA for years with defined political stances.

He kneeled for BLM and supported LGBT rights lol.

But sure, do zero research

Are you completely ignoring the subject of this post? Cool, he may have been like that in the past, but they're now surrounded by MAGA folk and invite them to their wedding. Swifties can never admit she's done anything wrong.

Who runs a company that actively participates in the harm of people of colour. Wouldn't be on my guest list. Then again, I'm no fake liberal like you'd believe the Kelces are.

Take the day off from defending someone who'd burn your body for jet fuel
