Saturday’s assassination attempt on President Trump during a rally in western Pennsylvania could have been a scene straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster. As if the event wasn’t suspenseful enough, UFC President Dana White added another layer of intrigue by detailing his post-incident conversation with Trump, painting a picture of resilience and grit that resembles an action hero more than a politician.
During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, White shared insights into Trump’s state of mind following the assassination attempt. According to White, Trump remained unfazed, embodying the toughness and resilience that has become a hallmark of his public persona.
The assassination attempt occurred at a rally in western Pennsylvania, where a sniper’s bullet missed Trump by mere millimeters. The incident instantly sparked shockwaves across the political landscape, prompting speculation about Trump’s next move. Would he lay low for a while? Not quite.
Dana White was quick to squash rumors that Trump might attend that night’s UFC event in Denver. “No, he was never going to UFC Denver. I wasn’t even in — I was on a plane to Italy so he wouldn’t go to the UFC unless I was there number one,” White clarified.
White didn’t hold back his admiration for Trump’s reaction to the assassination attempt. “He is one of the toughest, most resilient human beings that I have ever met in my life,” White declared. He recounted how, even after being grazed by a bullet, Trump stood up, pumped his fist, and encouraged the crowd with chants of “fight, fight, fight.”
For White, this moment encapsulated Trump’s indomitable spirit. “Everybody wants to act like a tough guy, but when the sh** goes down, you find out who the tough guys are and who they aren’t,” White said. His vivid storytelling underscored Trump’s unyielding determination, even in the face of life-threatening danger.
Following the harrowing incident, White spoke with Trump for about 30 minutes, offering a firsthand account of the former president’s demeanor. “Pat, I’m telling you, I have never known a human being like this in my life. He is literally one of the toughest, most badass guys of all time,” White gushed. According to him, Trump’s reaction to the assassination attempt solidified his status as an “ultimate American badass.”
This isn’t just hyperbole from a loyal friend. White compared Trump’s resilience to that of a Boston acquaintance who never recovered from a near-death experience. In contrast, Trump, nearing 80 years old, brushed off the incident with remarkable composure and resolve.
The image of Trump standing tall and defiant in the face of danger will undoubtedly be etched into the annals of history. “That picture that you just showed will go down in history a hundred years after we’re dead,” White predicted.
As the dust settles on this shocking event, one thing is abundantly clear…President Trump’s legacy as a resilient leader—a true American badass—is now firmly cemented.
