In her Instagram story posted on Friday, Mahomes shared her frustration. She wrote, “I mean honestly... To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep-rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”

The backlash was particularly pronounced on X (formerly Twitter).  Some users expressed strong opinions about her apparent support for Trump.
