Racing legend Danica Patrick has never shied away from making her opinions known, even if they’re bound to cause controversy.
Patrick recently shed light on her politics with the 2024 presidential election between Joe Biden and Donald Trump mere months away.
“Here is where I stand with SOME current issues and politics. I am not a liberal. I am somewhere between Republican and independent,” Patrick wrote on social media.
“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 went on to voice her support for America.
“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.”
Patrick said she’s struggled over whether she should care about politics in the past.
“I don’t believe everything anyone says. I have been very torn over the years if I should give a (crap) about politics or just live the life I want as an example. I have been doing the latter. The reaction today is definitely interesting… since all I said was, I love this country.”
Despite her independent leaning, Danica sent a loud message to the Republican National Convention when she lauded a speech given by Vivek Ramaswamy, a former Republican presidential candidate from Ohio.
“Love this!” she wrote on social media in response to his speech. “And what a speaker.”
Given everything, it looks like President Joe Biden will have to work extra hard to earn Patrick’s vote in November.
