Former Chicago Bears LB Brian Urlacher Endorses Trump for President
Donald Trump landed another athlete celebrity endorsement this week.
Brian Urlacher, a former Chicago Bear, released a video endorsement for Trump.
I am not sure how much weight Urlacher has these days, but it should give Trump a small boost.

Donald Trump has become very popular among many different circles of athletes.
His quest to break 50 with Bryson DeChambeau have gone viral many times over.
Trump also has videos with John Daly and a host of other athletes, and now he can add Urlacher to list.
Urlacher was a stud on the gridiron, a Hall of Fame linebacker for the Chicago Bears.
Urlacher posted on social media, "Doesn’t matter how many fake charges they find him guilty of he’s still got my vote. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 TRUMP 2024.”
He also did a video endorsement for Trump…

One would think the biggest impact of this endorsement would be in Illinois where Urlacher played ball, but Trump is getting crushed in Illinois right now, trailing Harris 58-42% in the latest poll.
Trump has lost ground there since the previous Emerson College poll, where Trump was “only” behind by nine points.
I don’t put much importance into celebrity endorsements, but there are plenty of people that allow their favorite athletes and stars to dictate who they will vote for.
Sadly, one of my favorites of all time, Emmitt Smith, just endorsed Harris, so that does not work very well for me.
For Trump, the more important thing right now is to keep hammering battleground states and pull ahead of Harris.
Trump has to block Harris from winning all three key Blue Wall states (Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin). If he can do that, I don’t think Harris can win.
That would especially be the case if Trump can win a few more states, such as Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, and New Jersey.
