Ben Roethlisberger, the politician that never was. It’s been quite a day for Big Ben, he must have been jealous of all the other QB’s in the news. First it was reported Ben hasn’t met with the Steelers about restructuring his contact. And now this. Trump lawyer Bruce Castor accidentally refers to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger as Ben Roethlisberger, the NFL quarterback, during impeachment proceedings.
“Let’s touch now on the second absurd and conflated allegation in the House managers’ single article. President Trump’s phone call to Georgia secretary of state Ben Roethlisberger, surreptitiously recorded…”

I think Trump's defense lawyer just said, "Georgia Secretary of State Ben Roethlisberger"?

Did he just say “Georgia Secretary of State Ben Roethlisberger?”

Perhaps Ben Roethlisberger will, in revenge, start publicly referring to Bruce Castor as “Fidel Castro."

We checked the tapes and yes, Bruce Castor just mistakenly confused Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (left) with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (right). #impeachmentTrial pic.twitter.com/UNxyNMdWTY

I’ve submitted the following question to the attorneys for former president Donald J Trump…
Do you have a tape of Georgia Secretary of State Ben Roethlisberger saying “fuck the Falcons” and will you be submitting it into the record?
Thank you— Kathy Griffin (@kathygriffin) February 12, 2021

I had no idea Ben Roethlisberger was involved. Talk about burying the lede!

For the morally impaired:
Brad Raffensperger, not Ben Roethlisberger
Cavalry, not Calvary
Coverage, not covfefe

Sure, Tom Brady has won a few championships, but has he ever been snap elected as Georgia's Secretary of State like Ben Roethlisberger has? Checkmate!
— Adam Stevens (@ColorFilledMind) February 12, 2021
Ben Roethlisberger has been very busy and that explains the Steelers season.
— Wajahat Ali (@WajahatAli) February 12, 2021
Might it be time for Ben to retire so he could fulfill his destiny as the Secretary of State?
