Brett Favre was never the type of athlete that saved his opinions for himself. The NFL Hall of Famerwasn’t exempt from controversy during his career and once he hung the cleats, nothing changed for him, who has made some interesting claims in recent years, even earning the hate of the Green Bay Packers fans.

When it comes to politics, it seems like Favre is more fearless than when he was on the gridiron. The 51-year-old recently found himself under fire for showing his support to POTUS Donald Trump ahead of the presidential election.

Contrary to most athletes, Favre isn’t afraid of sharing his political views and he took to Twitter to express his support to Trump a couple of days before he and Joe Biden will know who wins the 2020 elections.

Of course, not everybody was happy with that and some fans started attacking the veteran quarterback for his comments.

The Green Bay Packers legend has been making the headlines in recent times. He criticized the NBA and their low ratings, explaining their political message was hurting them and showing his support to Trump whenever he has the chance.
