You may have heard that Donald Trump was looking to land Tom Brady (who is definitely in his camp) or Ben Roethlisberger (who apparently is not) to speak for him at the upcoming Republican National Convention.
Sadly, for The Donald neither quarterback will be speaking on his behalf. So Trump will going to the next guy on the list of QBs you’d want to speak for you, if you are looking at your list in reverse order, that is: Tim Tebow.
Now we already know that Trump is such a big fan of Tebow that he allegedly spent some of his charity money to buy a $12,000 Tebow helmet so I guess the choice makes sense.
Naturally when it comes to both Trump as well as Tim Tebow the internet has many varied opinions, most of them hilarious. Here’s a sampling…

Donald Trump is having Tim Tebow speak at the Republican National Convention. I'm confused. I thought he didn't like losers.

Like a NFL team in the midst of free agency, Trump has hoped to add Tom Brady to his team. He had to settle for Tim Tebow.

Tim Tebow knows about as much about politics as Donald Trump.

Tebow speaking at the RNC. Trump is the GOP candidate for president. We are living in The Onion.

Trump courting Brady but having Tebow speak at the RNC is like planning to go to a steakhouse & ending up dumpster diving behind an Arby's

Ah, maybe this is the real reason Tebow is speaking…
