Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick has come under heavy criticism for a political post on social media
Patrick attended a festival hosted by Turning Point USA, which is a conservative non-profit founded by Charlie Kirk, which wasn’t an issue. However, after the event, she took to her Instagram and posted photos of the trip while taking a shot at President Joe Biden.
The former NASCAR and IndyCar star shared a photo from the event with different hats that had messages, one of them saying,”I could s–t a better president.”
She caught heavy backlash in the comment section over it.
It was so bad that Patrick had to take to her Instagram story and fire off at fans.
“Y’all are losing your damn minds over my turning point post,” she started in a message on her Instagram story. “Here is where I stand with SOME current issues and politics. I am not a liberal. I am somewhere between republican and independent. 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 has never been shy about her political affiliation as she reacted with happiness to Donald Trump becoming President in 2016.
“Here is where I stand with SOME current issues and politics. I am not a liberal. I am somewhere between republican and independent. I think our country should be run by someone that knows business and has integrity. I believe we should be able to speak freely.”
She also stated her love for America as she added, “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.”
The former NASCAR and IndyCar star is taking some heat but it is unlikely to last as long she gets back to workout videos and sharing bikini pictures from her outings.
