Travis Kelce reveals he WOULD visit Donald Trump’s White House if former President is re-elected and Chiefs win another Super Bowl
Travis Kelce insists he would have no problem returning to the White House with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates if Donald Trump is re-elected as US President.
Kelce and the Chiefs were invited to the White House by Joe Biden last week, with the current President keen to commemorate the team for their second consecutive Super Bowl triumph in February. Should they pull off a historic ‘three-peat’ and win the NFL’s biggest prize again next season, it is unclear who will be in position to invite them back to the Presidential residence – with Biden and Trump set to battle it out in the US election later this year.
A potential meeting with Trump could prove awkward for Kelce given his girlfriend Taylor Swift has previously been critical of the American politician, whom she accused of ‘stoking the fire of white supremacy and racism’ back in 2020. However, on the latest episode of his and brother Jason’s New Heights podcast, Travis revealed he will visit the White House ‘every time’ if he’s invited ‘no matter who’s up there at the helm’.

It’s always an honor to go to the White House,’ he told Jason about last week’s Presidential visit. I mentioned it last time, any time I get a chance to be recognized by the President of the United States and get to go with my teammates and a group of men and women who I had success with to the point we get acknowledged… I’m doing it every time no matter who’s up there at the helm. ‘No matter what’s going on in this world. It’s just such a cool opportunity.
‘I think representing the Chiefs up there, I wanted to do that for the Hunt family and all our coaches. I wanted to make sure I remembered that and got all those pictures and memories in the bank with them.’ Earlier this year, Kelce sparked controversy after he appeared to like a picture of Trump meeting former TV presenter Sage Steele on social media.
