NFL quarterback and Packers legend Aaron Rodgers seldom shies away from headlines, controversies and conspiracies. It’s been two months since the 2022-23 season ended. Despite declaring his intentions to play for the New York Jets, fans still don’t have a concrete answer for A-Rod’s next team in the league. However, there’s one thing they know for sure. His preferred candidate for the next President of the United States of America. Also, No 12 isn’t the only one standing behind this controversial candidate.

The Green Bay Packers signal-caller had his friend and podcaster Aubrey Marcus reiterating the same emotions when he welcomed Democratic candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr. on his podcast last week. And Aubrey set the tone of the podcast from the get-go as he introduced Kennedy Jr. as the next president of the country.

Rodgers and Co know whom to vote for

Aaron Rodgers announced his intention to visit a South Oregon ‘darkness retreat’ for self-reflection purposes this off season. And there were many who doubted the 4x league MVP’s decision-making process and the subsequent drama surrounding it. However, Aubrey Marcus was among the few people who embraced A-Rod with open arms, having experienced the benefits of a darkness retreat firsthand. And the son of Robert F Kennedy, RFK Jr., made an appearance in this safe space this week.

Coming from an ancestry of political behemoths (his uncle was John F Kennedy), it wasn’t surprising to see RFK Jr submit his candidacy for the 2024 US Presidential Elections. “I believe he’s going to win. He has proven that he has the integrity and the courage to stand up to the corporatocracy which is overrunning all of political and state agencies,” Aubrey Marcus said as he reinstated his faith in RFK as the potential successor to present POTUS, Joe Biden. “Kennedy2024,” A-Rod reposted the video with multiple flexes and red heart emojis.

Aaron Rodgers and Robert Kennedy’s causes intersected during the COVID-19 vaccination protocols. The duo belonged to the anti-vax camp and Rodgers even faced considerable backlash after lying about his vaccination status in 2021.

Aaron Rodgers loves his conspiracy theories

Aaron Rodgers’ free-thinking talking points, which many consider borderline conspiracy theories, extend way beyond the subjects of vaccination and darkness retreat. It also encompasses high-altitude flying objects. In a recent appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, the Super Bowl XLV MVP brought up an alien subject. A-Rod and Pat had a detailed discussion about the US shooting down up to three UFOs (unidentified flying objects) in the last month.

However, that wasn’t the conspiracy theory. According to No 12, the UFO headlines were meant to distract the population from the more shocking ‘Jeffrey Epstein client list’ release. Let’s say that talk show hosts and media houses weren’t as kind to Aaron’s hypotheses as his friend Aubrey. And sometimes, Rodgers just has to sense the surroundings before stirring the frying pan.
