Aaron Rodgers a ‘malignant force in the culture’ with Jimmy Kimmel-Jeffrey Epstein claims: Nick Wright

The reaction tells it all.
To Nick Wright, the real story in the Aaron Rodgers-Jimmy Kimmel feud isn’t whether the Disney-on-Disney drama will affect business or if Kimmel will sue Rodgers for alleging he was an associate of Jeffrey Epstein.
Wright, the host of “What’s Wright? with Nick Wright”, said he believes the real story is how Rodgers can make scandalous allegations and no one bats an eye since this type of behavior is in line with his public persona.
“The story is Aaron Rodgers, who undeniably is one of the most famous athletes in America today, arguably the single-most powerful player in the single-most powerful league we have, has crossed the rubicon from wacky conspiracy theory guy to malignant force in the culture and nobody has seemed to have batted an eye,” Wright said Thursday during a 14-minute segment on Rodgers.
“If Steph Curry went on ‘The Dan Patrick Show’ and just casually said, implied that Julia Roberts murdered somebody and seemed serious about it, I don’t think the story would be, ‘Is this going to affect Dan’s relationship with Julia’s movie studio.’
“I think the story would be, ‘What the hell happened to Steph Curry?’”
Wright criticized Rodgers after the quarterback took his longstanding beef with Kimmel to another level by alleging that Kimmel may among the star-studded names on recently unsealed court documents related to the late convicted pedophile.
“There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, that are really hoping that doesn’t come out,” Rodgers said Tuesday on “The Pat McAfee Show.”
The 40-year-old is known for being a conspiracy theorist, and Wright says that has poor consequences and amplifies certain voices.
“Rodgers has become the voice in the sports world of some of the most deranged, unhinged people in our populus,” the Fox Sports host said.
Wright, who acknowledged he is “very highly critical of Aaron and this person he’s become,” said that Rodgers is so far down the rabbit hole that he referenced the “Alphabet gangsters” in the medical field while not recognizing that term is usually reserved for LGBQT+ discussions.
“He is so deep in the toxic internet brain vortex that it got lumped in with the mass delusion psychosis he talks about and the Super Bowl logo memes and the ‘debate me, bro’ to [Dr. Anthony] Fauci, and the Epstein list, it is all just one stew of a brain that’s been melting,” Wright said. “Now he’s throwing out terms that have not only nothing to do with the pharmaceutical industry, but also if he knew what they meant would disavow.
“I think Aaron is a lot of things, I think judgmental of what people do privately sexually is not one of the them. Yet, it just spilled out of his mouth like so much of this other toxic bulls–t that has a platform nearly an hour a week to spew for folks that otherwise I don’t think are looking for it.”
While Pat McAfee has since apologized for the uproar Rodgers’ comments created, the future Hall of Famer has not commented since Kimmel’s social media post on Tuesday night.
Wright cannot believe that somehow this has become accepted behavior from one of America’s most-talented athletes.
“We’ve all become numb to the fact of who is saying it and what he’s saying,” Wright said. “There was just flatly one of the greatest players we’ve ever seen in America’s favorite sport who plays in the biggest market who has a bigger platform than any other player in the league, more power over his team that any other player in the league — that guy went on national television and casually threw out there to millions of people, ‘Hey, this guy that I don’t like, probably a pedophile.’ That’s what f—king happened.
“One of our most prominent voices in sports has become the face, the voice and most importantly the megaphone for any bats–t crazy, half-baked theory he stumbles across on the internet.”
