Sports have become increasingly “woke” over the past five years.
But the Ultimate Fighting Championship is not one of them.
Now Donald Trump attended one UFC event and something surprising happened.
The Democrats and their media allies have done their best to demonize Donald Trump and all of his supporters.
They believed that fomenting hysteria around the Capitol Hill riot and banning him from every social media platform would make him less relevant, but they were wrong.
Trump attended UFC 264 with Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier as the main event, and he received a standing ovation when he entered the arena.

Trump stood by UFC president Dana White when everyone else doubted him, so White has remained a loyal friend despite the constant slander thrown at Trump.
Some members of the crowd even began chanting U-S-A.

Mel Gibson, one of the few open conservatives in Hollywood, was even seen saluting Trump.

In spite of the media hysteria, Trump remains largely popular.
There’s a reason he garnered 74 million votes.
The establishment hoped he would go away, but he’s still creating enthusiasm among his base.
Meanwhile, Joe Biden hasn’t inspired anyone as his administration is already off the rails.
Within six months of taking office, Biden exploded the illegal immigration crisis, caused a labor shortage by paying people not to work, and contributed to price inflation—gas prices have soared since Biden clamped down on natural gas and oil production.
The establishment isn’t going to get rid of Trump as easily as they thought they would, and his welcome at UFC 264 proved that.
