Trump Praises 'Legendary' Crowd Reaction at UFC 314 as Sign of Success
President Donald Trump hailed the enthusiastic crowd reaction at UFC 314 in Miami as a testament to his administration’s successful policies.
During a press interaction on Air Force One early Sunday morning, President Trump described the crowd’s reaction to his entrance at the Kaseya Center in Miami as ‘somewhat legendary.’ He arrived alongside several cabinet members, including notable figures like DOGE policy advisor Elon Musk and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The event, which saw Trump sitting beside UFC CEO Dana White, was marked by roaring chants of ‘U-S-A’ from the audience, a response the president viewed as validation of his administration’s efforts.
Trump’s granddaughter, Kai Trump, also attended the event and shared her excitement about the crowd’s enthusiastic welcome. She described the experience as ‘really cool’ and praised the atmosphere at her second UFC fight. The president himself engaged with the fighters, referring to them as ‘modern-day warriors’ and expressing his admiration for their toughness and spirit.
In a light-hearted jab at his predecessor, Trump commented on his availability for media interactions, contrasting himself with former President Joe Biden. This event not only showcased Trump’s continued public support but also highlighted his engagement with sports and his connection with the American public.
