“I would treat Biden the same way!” Dana White responds to accusations of UFC being pro-Republican with Donald Trump walkouts

UFC CEO Dana White and former President Donald Trump have a visible camaraderie that is frequently on display in public. Often, they grace each other in their respective fields of work. White, in particular, is often accused of being a firm supporter of the Republican party presidential candidate. However, the UFC CEO finally addressed such accusations.

Dana White and Donald Trump have a longstanding relationship dating back to the early days of UFC. Keeping that in mind, it’s no surprise that the 78-year-old Trump is given special respect. Some have alleged that Dana White is pro-Republican based on Trump’s prominent appearances at UFC events. However, the CEO of UFC clarified that he is not politically biased.

If (Joe) Biden came to a UFC event, I would treat Biden the same way! If Biden was there, we would cover the fact that the President of the United States… Or if (Barack) Obama, (George) Bush, any of those guys ever came to an event, we would treat them with the same respect. If a former or standing president of the United States shows up to your event, you show them respect.

Over the past few years, the 2024 Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, has become a regular feature at major UFC events. Cameras cover the real estate baron from the moment Trump walks into the arena. The fans present in the arena erupt with a huge roar. In one instance, the crowd even chanted ‘F*ck Joe Biden’ as the ex-POTUS walked out to the arena.

In the UFC arena, the massive support for Trump has led to accusations against the UFC boss. Despite criticism from the mainstream media and online users for showing favoritism towards Trump, the UFC CEO continues to speak highly of the former President. Most recently, he addressed the assassination attempt on Trump that took place last month in Butler County, Pennsylvania.
