Danica Patrick had a busy day in Washington, D.C. on Monday.
Throughout the 2024 presidential campaign, Patrick was an outspoken supporter of Republican candidate Donald Trump. The former race car driver and current analyst attended several campaign events and fundraised for Trump before casting her first-ever presidential vote for the GOP nominee. When Trump was declared the winner over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, Patrick celebrated along with the rest of MAGA supporters.
On Monday, Trump was inaugurated as the 47th President, with Patrick in attendance. Since returning from D.C., Patrick has been sharing photos from various official events, including the Starlight Ball, one of several inaugural balls put on for Trump and his supporters.
"Country singer Gavin DeGraw was the star entertainer for the third inaugural ball, the Starlight Ball. Many of the guests invited to this event were major donors to the president's campaign," CBS News wrote.
On Tuesday night, Patrick posted pictures of herself at the gala, sporting an off-shoulder red dress that definitely drew attention.
"Starlight ball. ⭐️•I can't believe these are all the pictures I took! Gonna run this look back with a new hair do and no one will know. 😜," Patrick said.
Overall, Patrick spent two days in our nation's capital, and she's got plenty more pictures to prove it. You can check them out on Instagram here.
"What a crew for the inauguration! So much fun and so much laughing," Patrick wrote in the caption for another post. "However, I have learned there are a few things politics don't care much about…. Food, water, and sleep. We departed at 8am and returned at 2pm. Thank god I packed some water and was able to finally eat my breakfast.
"Also….. Melania was simply stunning and looked like the hottest mob boss."
Prior to 2024, Patrick was not particularly politically active or vocal about her opinions on social media. All of that has changed though.
"Here is where I stand with SOME current issues and politics. I am not a liberal. I am somewhere between republican and independent. I think our country should be run by someone that knows business and has integrity. I believe we should be able to speak freely," Patrick previously explained.
"I love this country, and I have lived in other places. I believe when people of different opinions speak face to face, we realize we are more similar than different."
Expect to hear a lot more from Patrick over the next four years.
