Patrick Mahomes mother loudly endorsed former President Donald Trump while attending her son’s Monday Night Football game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Randi Mahomes wore a red “Make America Great Again” hat while watching the game from a luxury suite at Arrowhead Stadium, according to a video posted to right-wing sports site OutKick, which is owned by Fox Corporation. “Make America great again. Let’s do it. Woo!” she says, while throwing her arms up in the air. The Mahomes matriarch’s endorsement of the former president comes after her son’s wife, Brittany Mahomes, sparked widespread criticism after “liking” a post penned by Trump to promote his policy platform. She soon clapped back at her haters, writing on social media: “To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”
