Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker slams Biden, yet joins White House celebration
Butker’s controversial comments raise eyebrows before joining team in D.C
Kansas City star Kicker Butker calls out President Biden, but still joins Super Bowl celebration in DCLAPRESSE
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker stirred the pot with some fiery remarks about President Joe Biden during a recent commencement speech in Kansas. The Super Bowl champion didn’t hold back, branding Biden “delusional” and accusing him of “supporting the murder of innocent babies.”
“Our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his Catholic faith, but at the same time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally,” Butker said. “He has been so vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that I’m sure to many people, it appears that you can be both Catholic and pro-choice.”
Butker’s comments sparked a whirlwind of controversy and left many questioning whether the kicker, 28, would join his teammates-Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the rest of the Super Bowl winners-in Washington, D.C., for the celebratory visit to the White House.
Despite the tension, Butker did make the trip to the nation’s capital. He stood in the back row as President Biden welcomed the Chiefs to celebrate their second successive Vince Lombardi Trophy. The President paid tribute to their victorious 2023 season, and even put on a Kansas City helmet, a moment that lightened the mood and saw Butker cracking a smile towards the end of the ceremony.
It’s a rare instance where politics and sports collide, but Butker’s bold stance and subsequent attendance at the White House showcase the complex interplay of personal beliefs and professional commitments. The kicker’s outspoken views are sure to keep him in the headlines as the Chiefs gear up for another season.
