President-elect Donald Trump made a grand entrance at the UFC pay-per-view event in Madison Square Garden in New York. He was greeted with a standing ovation as he walked out with UFC President Dana White. The crowd cheered as they took their seats to the sound of Kid Rock’s “American Bad Ass.”
Trump, a longtime UFC fan, has been known to attend major fights and is a supporter of the sport. He has often used hypermasculine tones in his campaigns to appeal to male voters. His appearance at the UFC event was a continuation of his efforts to connect with this demographic.
Accompanying Trump at the event were Elon Musk and House Speaker Mike Johnson. The atmosphere was electric as the crowd chanted “USA! USA!” in anticipation of the main event featuring Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones.
Despite facing some controversies during his time in office, Trump continues to enjoy visits to New York, where he spent many years before moving to Florida. He has a close relationship with Dana White, who has also been involved in politics and has spoken at Republican conventions.
Trump’s presence at the UFC event added to the excitement of the evening and showcased his ongoing support for the sport. As he prepares to transition out of office, Trump remains a prominent figure in the world of politics and entertainment.
