They probably don't agree with his policies, but for them, as they are not politicians and don't comment on political issues, friendship trumps politics. I guess to some part the fact that they all had to deal with hostile media and perceived unfairness in their professional life makes this bond even stronger.

Robert Kraft donated $204,300 from 2008 to 2014 (63.8 percent to Democrats). Arthur Blank spent $177,400 (74.2 percent to Democrats). kraft is well known as a democrat, he just personally likes trump (i didn't know Blank was, that makes me feel bad for him  )major character flaw but someone saying woody johnson, an actual trump endorser and major republican donor, is better is, uh, nuts

Name an NFL fanbase that isn't lousy with white supremacists and wife beaters and stuff though The trick is that large swaths of Americans are just all around awful people and NFL fan bases are largely comprised of Americans and therefore are awful by extension

Not that the Falcons really deserved it after the biggest choke job in the history of sport but NFL overtime rules are dumb and both teams should be guaranteed a possession. I'd like it if postseason games were a full extra quarter but baby steps.

It might go back to when Trump was a Democrat.
