Trump Talks Election, Sports on Belichick's Podcast

Former President Donald Trump appeared on Bill Belichick's 'Let's Go' podcast alongside co-host Jim Gray on the eve of the 2024 presidential election. During the discussion, Trump compared the election's excitement to the Super Bowl, highlighting the high stakes involved. The conversation covered a variety of sports-related topics including sports betting, the PGA and LIV Golf merger, and the impact of NIL on college sports. Trump also expressed his views on the Democratic Party, referring to it as a 'system' he aims to challenge. Belichick, who has a history of supporting Trump, asked how sports could unify the country post-election. Despite past political support, Belichick declined the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Trump following the January 6 Capitol riots, while Patriots owner Robert Kraft has distanced himself from Trump in recent years.
