MLB legend Alex Rodriguez and then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez endorsed Joe Biden for president in 2020. During a virtual chat session with then-senator Biden, A-Rod made motivational comments and put his support behind Biden in the 2020 presidential election.

Speaking about his two daughters, Natasha and Ella, and Lopez’s daughter, Emme, A-Rod made an impactful statement:

“I just want our three little girls to know that one day, they could be CEO, they could go for no. 1 and they could be the next president of the United States of America."

Biden agreed and supported Rodriguez by saying:

"They could be president. It's about letting people know that there is nothing beyond our capacity. ... I really, really believe it."

A-Rod shares two daughters with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis and J.Lo has twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

Lopez, who is of Puerto Rican descent, also spoke in support of the Latino community.
