Over the years, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has made it very clear which way he leans politically.

Kelce, who is dating Taylor Swift, has been viewed by some as a likely Donald Trump supporter. Kelce, who is from Ohio, liked a social media post featuring the 45th president of the United States. However, his other actions say differently.

The three-time Super Bowl-winning tight end has made it pretty clear that he leans left on most issues. His actions have made that obvious over the years.

Take a look at what Kelce has done:

  • A commercial for the COVID-19 vaccine
  • Endorsements for "woke" Bud Light
  • Appeared in socially progressive sketches on Saturday Night Live
  • And back in 2017, he was one of the first white players to kneel for the national anthem

Does that sound like someone who's right leaning to you?

Many are waiting to see if Kelce endorses Joe Biden prior to the 2024 election. Most are expecting his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, to do so.

"Travis Kelce, especially if he votes Democratic, profoundly disrupts the right-wing appeal to (white) male identity. In fact, when traditionally successful men like Kelce support liberal and progressive causes and candidates—especially when they do so openly and unapologetically—they help to provide a "permission structure" for young men to vote for Democrats, including Joe Biden. This could be a nightmare scenario for MAGA well beyond November," one outlet argued.

Both Kelce and Swift could help push many young people to the polls this November, that's for sure.
