Patriots owner on Trump: Like having ‘a drunk fraternity brother become president’
by Tara Suter - 10/16/24 7:02 PM ET
The owner of the New England Patriots football team recently equated former President Trump to a “drunk fraternity brother” during his presidency, noting their previous longtime friendship.
“I couldn’t believe it,” Robert Kraft told Charlamagne tha God on “The Breakfast Club” radio program Friday. “It was like having someone who’s a drunk fraternity brother become [president of the United States.]”
Earlier in the interview, Kraft said he’s a Democrat but that Trump “became a social friend in the early 90s” when he was going down to Florida.
“And then when my wife of blessed memory died 13 years ago, he was one of four or five people who reached out to me and was really, really nice,” Kraft continued. “The only donation I ever gave to him was he called me when he got elected. And I made a strong donation to his inauguration.”
In early 2017, Kraft said on Fox News’s “Fox and Friends” that the former president had “been great to me over these last two decades.”
“In the toughest time of my life, he was there for me when my beloved wife died,” Kraft added. “I was really depressed and he invited me to things and he looked out after me. Only four or five people did that to that extent.”
Kraft said in his appearance on “The Breakfast Club” last week that he “was very upset [about] what happened” on Jan. 6, 2021, when the riots at the U.S. Capitol occurred, later adding that he hadn’t “talked to him since then.”

After a drunk fraternity brother or two as a Supreme we
should be used to it.
It's still a surprise.
