Caitlin Clark’s Boyfriend Posts Presidential Candidate’s Video
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark instantly became the face of the WNBA after becoming the No. 1 overall pick in April. During her transition to the big leagues, she leaned on her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, for support.
While Clark sparked unprecedented ticket sales and viewership in the WNBA, her success also sparked an intense online discourse over race. Clark’s name was weaponized by pundits pushing hateful motives. With Clark being a white, straight woman from Iowa, misguided assumptions about her political beliefs flooded X.
The same went for McCaffery, a fellow Iowa alum who works as an assistant with the Indiana Pacers. However, McCaffery set the record straight when it comes to where he leans politically, posting Vice President Kamala Harris’ new campaign video on his Instagram Stories.
In the video called “We Choose Freedom,” Harris shares a powerful message while Beyonce’s song, “Freedom,” plays in the background. “In this election, we each face a question: What kind of country co we want to live in?” Harris narrates.
“The freedom not just to get by, but to get ahead. The freedom to be safe from gun violence. The freedom to make decisions about your own body. We choose a future when no child lives in poverty, where we can all afford health care. Where no one is above the law,” she says as the video shows a photograph of former President Trump’s mug shot. “We believe in the promise of America, and we are ready to fight for it. Because when we fight, we win. So join us.”
