Yes, another reason to hate Kirk Cousins.......

Social media had all sorts of reactions after a photo went viral of President Donald Trump hanging out with a popular NFL quarterback at the White House.

Though he’s arguably the most polarizing politician in the history of the United States, Donald Trump is widely popular among NFL legends, players and team owners. His supporters include Brett Favre, Mike Ditka, John Elway, Lawrence Taylor, Brian Urlacher, Nick Bosa, Gardner Minshew II, Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, Shad Khan and Jimmy Haslam, among others.

It would appear that Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins is also a big-time supporter of Trump. Margo Martin, a Special Assistant to the President and Communications Advisor, shared a photo of the two hanging out at the White House:

He sucks up all the salary cap wherever he plays and he was a total anti-vax creep, along with being a proselytizing smug evangelical. I suppose there might be a few lingering Michigan State fans who don't totally hate him.
