New England Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett refuses to attend the team's reception at the White House after winning the Super Bowl LI because he doesn't support President Donald Trump.
Bennett made the comments while both speaking with reporters and on Twitter, the Dallas Morning News reported on Monday.

So what. Trump doesn’t need any thug trash in the White House. We jsut go rid of 0bama, why would he bring trash back in.
You’re cut.
Not surprising that it’s the tight end that likes obie.
Not much of a Patriot, is he?
Why annouce it then ? For attention ? No one will even notice.

Great. One less whiner Trump has to endure.
Exactly.
The lunacy is on the Left.
I think he’s one of the clowns who also supported Kaepernick in his silly little national anthem protest.
Nothing new here, it’s a nothing burger. Athletes have declined to meet with Presidents whether they were Republican or Democrat for a long time.
The poor slob will regret it if he doesn’t go. The issue will follow him for the rest of his life. If he wants to be an Azzhole, hey...it’s America...it’s your right.
Started with cowboys and had some signs of all about me there. Lucky he was privileged enough for pats to pick him up. Brink comes back I suspect good bye Marty B
Hey Martellus, I comprende bro. I wouldn’t have went either if 0bama was there.

The thing that amazes me is that, in the past, every single member of every winning team who went to the White House supported the president in office at the time. Every single team member. That’s amazing. I mean, that has to be the case because otherwise, it means that Martellus is just being an immature baby.
No one is ever going to remember his name.
Perhaps the Pats could trade him to Cleveland (a gal can dream <^..^>)
Now he’s gonna look like a $itch when Coach Bill Belichick makes him go.
Does this Dbag think he has a choice....Belichick doesn’t give two $hits about this guy and will cut him and replace him in a minute...SMH!!!
Belichick’s tolerance for insubordination is “ZERO.”
So, he won’t go if Coach says he doesn’t have to go...But that also probably means he won’t be a Patriot anyways.
