Bill Belichick addressed the letter he wrote to Donald Trump at his press conference on Wednesday, saying it was “not politically motivated.”
Trump read from Belichick’s letter during a campaign rally in New Hampshire on Monday night.
“Congratulations on a tremendous campaign,” Trump said, reading from the letter. “You have dealt with an unbelievable slanted and negative media, and have come out beautifully – beautifully. You’ve proved to be the ultimate competitor and fighter. Your leadership is amazing. I have always had tremendous respect for you, but the toughness and perseverance you have displayed over the past year is remarkable.
