UFC CEO Dana White’s Shocking Decision: Swears Off Political Campaigns After Boosting Trump’s Victory
In a surprising post-election appearance, Donald Trump attended UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden, just days after winning the presidency. The venue, previously thought to be the endpoint of his campaign, was instead a celebration. Accompanied by some of his incoming cabinet picks and UFC CEO Dana White, Trump made a notable entrance.
Dana White, who played a significant role in galvanizing young male voters for Trump, made headlines with his bold stance on politics. In an interview with The New Yorker during the event, White asserted, “I’m never f–king doing this again,” signaling his firm decision to disengage from future political involvement. He expressed his disillusionment with the political arena, labeling it “gross” and “disgusting,” and declaring his intent to steer clear of political campaigns henceforth.
Despite his retreat from politics, White praised his friend Trump, recalling an incident during the 2024 campaign in Pennsylvania where Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt. White admired Trump’s resilience, describing him as “tougher and more badass than anybody.”
The event also showcased a coalition of notable Trump supporters who are expected to play pivotal roles in his upcoming administration. Among them were Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., House Speaker Mike Johnson, former Representative Tulsi Gabbard, tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, and Donald Trump Jr.
The UFC 309 gathering underscored Trump’s enduring influence and the alliances he continues to forge, setting the stage for his upcoming presidential term.
