FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Bill Belichick has eight Super Bowl rings. Maybe he should also have four stars.
In a call with conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt aired Tuesday, President Donald Trump said he thinks the legendary New England Patriots coach — a master strategist on the football field — would make a solid military leader.
“If I ever had a military battle, I’d call Belichick up and say, ‘What do you think, what do you think? Give me a couple of ideas,'" Trump said. “He’d be as good as any general out there.”
Belichick, who won two Super Bowls with the Giants and six more with the Patriots, didn't immediately react to the president's comments.
