Trump reveals date for UFC fight at White House

President Donald Trump has been teasing an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) event at the White House, and has finally dropped a date.

The Trump administration is teaming up with Dana White to bring the UFC to the South Lawn of the White House on June 14, which is also the president’s 80th birthday. He revealed this during remarks at a celebration of the Navy’s 250th Anniversary in Norfolk, Virginia, discussing several major events taking place in America during his term. These include the 2028 Summer Olympics, the 2026 World Cup, as well as the country’s 250th birthday.

The infamous Conor McGregor also said on Wednesday that he would be taking part in the June fight, telling Fox News’s Sean Hannity that it was a “done deal” that has been “signed, delivered.”

“It ain’t a negotiation,” McGregor added.

“Right now, we’re eight months out. Dial a few things in, you know, close off a bit of business endeavors and then isolate myself in training camp in preparation to put on one hell of a show for the American people in celebration of their great birthday, 250 years of independence, and I pray it can ignite the support for the people of Ireland,” he said, making mention of his own homeland.

“This will be one of the greatest and most historic sports events in history, and President Trump hosting it at the White House is a testament to his vision to celebrate America’s monumental 250th anniversary,” said Trump spokesman Steven Cheung last month.

This UFC fight is definitely going to take the Democrats minds of the OBBB and into orbit.

On to the next Democratic grievance.

Can’t wait for this.
