Donald Trump, the 45th President of the USA, is an avid UFC fan. Trump is also very good friends with UFC CEO, Dana White, whom Trump has helped in the early years of White’s career with the UFC. White has reciprocated the favor by giving a speech at the Republican Convention in 2020.
However, White does not endorse the Republican Party or the Democrat Party. The UFC CEO has openly said that his political views lie in the center of the spectrum. Nevertheless, Trump has been part of multiple UFC PPVs and has received a warm welcome in all of his appearances.
Bill Burr’s wife flips off Donald Trump
UFC 295 at Madison Square Garden was a big success for the UFC. The promotion now has the top 3 gates at MSG with UFC 295 in second. UFC 205 where Conor McGregor became the double champion still holds 1st position. In third place is UFC 281 where Alex Pereira won the middleweight title from Israel Adesanya.
The success of the event was evident from the presence of luminaries. In addition to popular UFC fighters, Donald Trump, Kid Rock, Tucker Carlson, Bill Burr, Zac Efron, and Cillian Murphy graced the venue. Trump, Kid Rock, and Carlson entered the arena to the tune of “American Bad Ass,” a song released by Kid Rock in 2000.
Trump received a tremendous reception at Madison Square Garden, featured multiple times on the big screen, with each appearance prompting applause from the audience for the 45th President of the USA. However, one person in the arena was not particularly pleased with Trump’s presence.
Donald Trump walked into an arena that holds 20,000 people and 19,999 people were so happy.
