Marcin Gortat In recent months, he has shown more than once that he likes to speak out on political issues. The former NBA basketball player was particularly active before last year's parliamentary elections, when he spoke critically about the rule of Law and Justice.
However, Gortat does not limit himself only to: Polish politics, which is not surprising, because we are talking about… playerwho spent over ten years on the best basketball courts league world. Gortat recently visited the channel WarszawskiKokswhere he commented on the political situation in the United States after the last presidential elections.
Marcin Gortat commented on the result of the presidential elections in the United States and Joe Biden's decision
In the elections, Marcin Gortat supported Kamala Harris from the Democratic Party, not Republican representative Donald Trump. Gortat admitted that after Trump's victory he would probably earn more thanks to the investments he made, but emphasized that certain values mattered more to him, not money.
And how did Joe Biden, who resigned from running for re-election, approach the decision just over three months before the election? – I'm glad Joe Biden didn't become president because I was afraid he might simply die during a speech. It was already so scary. It was sad that the most powerful country in the world had such a leader. It's good that he gave his place to Kamala. I preferred it even though there are a lot of things that need fixing in the US. Trump won. It seems to me that the attempt on his life contributed to his victory, he said.
