It’s no big secret that most of the Chicago Cubs owners are conservative and tend to support the Republican Party. Many Cubs fans watched the last election and saw members of the Ricketts family endorsing, stumping and campaigning for now-President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.
Personally, this was not such a revelation to me as it is well-known the Ricketts family is wealthy and the president has longstanding relationships from his time in the private sector. So it was not surprising that the Ricketts were on the Trump train to Make America Great Again.
I, like many fans, didn’t think much of it.
