How Dana White, Joe Rogan, and the UFC Influenced Trump's Election Win

Over the years, Donald Trump has made a concerted effort to use UFC events as glorified campaign rallies, all with the backing of commissioner Dana White, and given what we've seen so far out of the election results, betting on the support of largely young, apolitical men paid off massively in the end. Rick Strom breaks it down. Give us your thoughts in the comments below!

Dude just kissed Trump's hand. Totally normal behavior. Not cult-like whatsoever.

[drewtramp]

What happen to keep politics out of sports.... Hypocrites

[Maggotboy_]

I’m so scared as a black trans guy living in FL. I’m sick of being seen as non-human to so many anti queer & racist people. This is all so overwhelming for someone who’s just 22. Im trying to have a good birthday today

I’ve always said the UFC doesn’t have true martial artists and as time goes by, I keep get prove right 😂

[stephencurry]

Note how so many of the MAGA have bald pumpkin-heads and utilize the same fourth grader vocabulary donald Drumpf does.

[Igotnothin_]

Thank you!! This is exactly the reason he won. He infiltrated sports and the minds of young impressionable men who then went on to sway the minds of young girls and the pickme cycle took off

[daltonfury]

“Everybody loves him”. Said absolutely no one. Everyone who’s been around him since childhood has nothing good to say about the man-baby. No one loves that guy. Well, almost no one. The ppl in his cult “love” him.

President Putin is already making Vice President Trump look like a chump. (Putin wants payback for making Trump "President")

[obbieosias]

I knew his crowd just love how every sinlge one of his rallies are just like a fake wrestling match!!!🤣🤣🤣

[banjoplayingbison]

This is why I encourage people to pirate UFC (since that makes Dana White pissed)

[Christopherjoe]

They all sounds so smart, articulate, and well informed

[MathiasJonsson-rj]

Yeah, yeah...we all knew how the entire chadverse thinks. Too many hits to the head takes it's toll...

[bk]

Literally the type of people I have not been able to stand my whole life. No depth to these people whatsoever. Tribal bros. Great.

[MrQuien]

I’ve been saying this for MONTHS. What makes you think Dana white is not forcing his fighters to vote trump *with proof* for fight/ppv time

[projectjfk]

Dont forget to mention the nfl and mlb.

[chrisruth]

5:43 It's so sad😞what happened to Tito Ortiz aka corporate punishment cause he used to be a very hip & cool dude that was very rebellious against conservative republicans also a bit of a anti capitalist..I am so disappointed in him🤷

[hbgriss]

Obviously it shows exactly how blatant ignorance that side is. Absolutely appalling.

[DelbertGrady]

Unfortunately Rick was bullied his entire life by dudes like these just because he looks exactly like Screech from Saved By The Bell.

[conrradotorres]

Now UFC fights will be $90 because of Trump

[berglen]

Observations rule both sides get casted into outside shadows babble bath.
