Ravens coach John Harbaugh and his brother, Los Angeles Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh, visited President Donald Trump at the White House on Thursday, a White House pool report confirmed.
It’s unclear what was discussed during the meeting, but the White House invited the two coaches to visit, according to a USA Today report.
John Harbaugh has spoken about Trump publicly a few times in recent years. He voiced support of a policy suggestion in 2015, prior to Trump’s first election victory in 2016. After a practice in August of 2015, Harbaugh said he backed the idea of building a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico.
“I’m going Trump here. Build a wall, it’s not that hard. You don’t have a border, you don’t have a country. You’re not a country without a border, right?” Harbaugh said. “At the same time, we’ve got 12 to 15 million hard-working people here. Give them a shot! Give them a chance to become a citizen so they’re paying taxes. All of us know that it’s not that complicated. But this side doesn’t want to solve it and neither does this side. Neither one of them wants to solve the problem. Solve the problem! It’d be done that fast.”
