Despite Hating Politics, Aaron Rodgers Was Mighty Impressed With This American President’s Golf Game

It’s safe to say that Aaron Rodgers has had his fair share of political run-ins. The Jets QB has been involved in a myriad of controversies and debates, especially those surrounding his political and social opinions. From his radical vaccination stance to his political stands and disregard for the present regime, Rodgers has never been afraid to be vocal about his thoughts. However, it seems he was once impressed with a completely different set of skills of a former POTUS. 

In fact, the 4x MVP once appeared on popular UFC commentator and podcast host Joe Rogan’s show where he addressed his true thoughts about politics. Although Rodgers has never been a steadfast supporter of either side of the political spectrum, his opinions on his ‘favorite’ former President come from a round of golf.

As Rodgers recalled on the Joe Rogan Show, “I had one of the rounds of my life. I played good…that was a highlight for sure.”

Rodgers visited President Obama and the White House in 2016 after a round of golf and was left impressed by his game. In the end, Aaron Rodgers emerged victorious, besting the former President on the golf course. Despite the friendly competition, the game was intense, leaving Rodgers a fan of the President’s golfing prowess. 

What does Aaron Rodgers’ political stance look like? 

When it comes to politics, Aaron Rodgers has consistently expressed his disillusionment. He believes that the nature of American politics swings from one side to another every election year, leading him to view the entire political system as a sham. As the star athlete said on the Joe Rogan Show, “You go from one extreme to the other every four or eight years…That’s why I would say politics is a sham.”

Rodgers is seemingly not a fan of the current presidential regime of President Joe Biden. The QB has had his run-ins with the Govt. over his false vaccination claims and his subsequent disregard for the use of the COVID-19 Vaccine. Rodgers has certainly made his thoughts about the current political scenario clear. Although he’s never been one to engage in modern-day politics heavily, he won’t hesitate in admitting his preference for President Obama.
