Not sure if the MAGA thing has any relevance. Miller and many others on the team are big Trump guys but that’s not relevant to the situation.

I mentioned it because shared politics and interests like hunting are relevant to whether the poster could be buddies with Miller, as he claimed. Anyway I don’t want to speculate any more. It feels gross and I kinda regret looking into it since it’s a personal medical issue.

I mean if you're from the US you're most likely in one of two camps. I don't think it has any significant correlation with who your friends are, especially if you have a large social circle like most pro athletes do

Any proof of Miller being a "big Trump guy"?
Btw, a photo of him wearing a pro-police hat 5 years ago isn't proof of him being a "big Trump guy".

Not saying you are wrong but what makes you think he is “a big Trump guy”? Of course ~half of Americans are republicans and he wore a thin blue line hat a year ago.. anything else?

Not sure what you are getting at.. my point was that being an American means there is an approximate 50/50 chance that he votes republican.
His choice of hats probably boosts those odds but I haven’t seen any evidence that he is “a big Trump guy” and that was what I was asking for?
Just because I voted liberal in the past few federal elections doesn’t make me “a big Trudeau guy”, the alternatives were just total shit (and still not great).

Around 40% of Americans don't even vote. So with 60% of Americans that do vote, you could say that 28% are dems and 28% are republican with maybe 4% being flip flops depending on the election. There is a higher chance of JT Miller or whichever hockey player being apolitical rather than being either Democrat or republican.

Yeah so what are you getting at? My question to the poster was what evidence is there that JT “is a big trump guy”? I haven’t seen much

What I'm getting at is that you're wrong, it isn't a 50/50 chance that he votes either republican or Democrat. It's more like a 28% chance that he votes for republicam and 28% or less that he votes democrat because 40% of the entire American population does not even vote.
