Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick publicly endorsed President Trump's decision to remove Dr. Anthony Fauci's security detail. Patrick shared a news article about the decision on her Instagram story, adding the comment "Damn right." The NIH initially requested the security detail for Fauci in 2020 due to threats he received during the COVID-19 pandemic. Trump defended the decision, stating that government employees cannot have security details indefinitely and that Fauci could afford private security. He also denied any responsibility for Fauci's future safety.

Patrick, a vocal Trump supporter, has recently criticized California's handling of the LA wildfires, questioning the state's water management despite abundant resources. She called for Governor Newsom's resignation on social media. In a previous interview, Patrick confirmed she would be voting for Trump in 2024, her first time voting in a presidential election. She expressed her belief that a Trump presidency, supported by his team, could lead to an even greater America. Patrick also reiterated her stance against transgender athletes competing in women's sports, calling it "completely wrong" and highlighting the inherent biological differences between men and women.
