After longtime friend President-elect Donald Trump won his second presidency, UFC President Dana White is officially calling it quits, saying in a recent interview he wants 'nothing to do with politics.'
UFC President Dana White is among President-elect Donald Trump’s most vocal supporters and was undoubtedly an instrumental part in his bid to win a second presidency, but Trump’s longtime friend is done with politics after this last election cycle. In an interview with the New Yorker following UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden last weekend, White told the magazine that he has likely endorsed his last politician. 'I’m never f---ing doing this again,' he said.
'It shows other people, Oh, wait. Everybody doesn’t hate Donald Trump like the media is telling us.' Trump received a thunderous applause as he made his way toward the Octagon on Saturday flanked by many of his Cabinet nominees, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy and Tulsi Gabbard. White said before the fight that Trump and UFC fighter Conor McGregor receive the biggest applause he has ever seen when they show up at a fight.
