Bill Belichick says his letter to Donald Trump wasn’t “politically motivated” — claiming he was just supporting a guy he’s been friends with for years.
Belichick addressed the letter in front of the media Wednesday morning — the letter which congratulated Trump on a “tremendous campaign” and said he hopes Trump will “Make America great again.”
Despite the political content, BB says the letter wasn’t about pushing political or religious views — it was merely about backing his friend.
Belichick says he’s also friends with John Kerry — which proves it’s possible to have a genuine relationship with two guys with polar opposite political views.
