Donald Trump has long been a supporter of Ultimate Fighting. When ZUFFA first purchased the UFC from SEG the first event ever promoted by the company was held on the East Coast at Donald Trump’s famous Taj Mahal resort and Casino. Years later Donald Trump eventually had a small percentage of the Affliction promotion which promoted Fedor Emelianenko amongst several other super star names before ultimately closing shop.
A regular at the UFC events, Donald Trump has built a relationship with Dana White and any of the UFC fighters which was evident during the presidential election of 2024. Trump had fighters such as Jorge Masvidal, Henry Cejudo, Colby Convington and many others speak on his behalf to their fans about actively voting to “Make America Great Again”
With the US Presidential Elections now complete, Dana White joined the Trump campaign on election night from the Mar a Lago hotel in Florida and followed President Trump following his victory speech to share a few words.
“Nobody deserves this more than him, and nobody deserves this more than his family does,” White said. “This is what happens when the machine comes after you. What you’ve seen over the last several years, this is what it looks like. Couldn’t stop him, he keeps going forward, he doesn’t quit, he’s the most resilient, hard-working man I’ve ever met in my life, his family are incredible people.
“This is karma, ladies and gentlemen. He deserves this. They deserve it as a family.”– said Dana White.
