Trump attends UFC in Miami
The president’s appearance at the cage-match event was marked by a warm reception from the crowd and high-profile greetings with Joe Rogan.
During the event, Trump reportedly requested that Dana White add a specific fighter to an upcoming 'White House card' scheduled for his 80th birthday in June.
The outing served as a stark contrast to the unfolding crisis in the Middle East, where his administration has just ordered a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Critics have noted the president’s focus on sporting spectacles amid escalating global tensions and economic uncertainty.
