Trump thanks Brittany Mahomes for 'strongly defending' him amid social media drama

Former President Donald Trump gave his thanks to Brittany Mahomes on Wednesday for “strongly defending” him on social media.

Mahomes, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, generated controversy last month when she appeared to like an Instagram post from the former president’s account. In the wake of the controversy generated online, Mahomes wrote a message that did not directly reference the drama, stating that people “have to have some deep rooted issues” from childhood to “hate to see others doing well.”
