Chris Evans gives Tom Brady a ‘pass’ on supporting Trump

Principled as he might be in his political views, the man who plays Captain America makes an exception for quarterback of the New England Patriots.

Actor Chris Evans, a Sudbury native, recently commented on reconciling his pronounced opposition to President Donald Trump with Tom Brady’s support. Evans is a lifelong Patriots fan, and explained his rationale with USA Today:

“Well, I tell you what. If anyone gets a pass it’s Tom Brady,” Evans explained. He continued:

We may have political disagreements. But I don’t want to encourage this landscape of if you disagree with me politically, you’re my enemy; That’s not the case.
