Danica Patrick Shifts Gears: From Racing Legend to Political Firebrand, Campaigns for Trump Amid U.S. Presidential Elections

Since hanging up her racing helmet, Danica Patrick has found a new track—this time in the political arena, where she’s making headlines for her outspoken support of Donald Trump in the upcoming U.S. presidential elections. The 42-year-old former motorsport star, now turned political commentator, has taken to social media to promote pro-Trump messages, stirring up controversy along the way.

Patrick, who built a massive following during her racing career, used her Instagram platform to share a reel that accused Joe Biden’s administration of falling short in its response to Hurricane Helene, which has wreaked havoc across the East Coast. With the death toll from the hurricane surpassing 100, critics have been vocal in demanding a more immediate response from the Biden administration. Patrick, however, pointed to Trump’s recent visit to Georgia—where the 78-year-old presidential hopeful was seen interacting with hurricane victims—as evidence of his more hands-on leadership style.

In the video shared by Patrick, Trump was lauded for “acting more like a president than the president,” as he swiftly traveled to affected areas while Biden’s government appeared slow to react. Patrick didn’t mince words, writing in her post, “Acting more like the president than the president,” a direct shot at Biden’s handling of the crisis.

Patrick’s involvement in Trump’s campaign has been growing steadily, with her making appearances across the country as part of the Reclaim America Tour. During the recent vice-presidential debate, she watched closely from home, sharing her thoughts in real-time on social media. Afterward, Patrick praised the Republican vice-presidential nominee for his strong defense of Trump’s previous administration and harsh criticism of the Biden-Harris regime’s domestic and foreign policies.

Not shy about making her political stance clear, Patrick took another swipe at the Democratic Party following the debate. She reposted a satirical meme suggesting that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, a Democrat, would vote for Republican Senator J.D. Vance after witnessing the debate—a sarcastic jab at the opposition.

With her bold, public support for Trump and increasingly aggressive social media presence, Patrick is making waves in a political landscape far removed from the world of motorsports she once dominated. Her continued involvement in the election could influence the national conversation, as fans and critics alike tune in to see where her controversial statements take her next.

As the election draws closer, it’s clear that Danica Patrick is shifting into overdrive, using her platform to advocate for change and sparking debates in a new arena—politics. Whether this foray will be as successful as her racing career remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Danica is not slowing down.
