The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

A UFC fight at the White House would be a great addition to the exciting catalog of events the Trump administration has in store for America’s 250th birthday. With the White House as a venue and Dana White’s event management experience, the administration is ideally placed to showcase a great American sport to commemorate such a significant occasion.

Anti-Trump narrative

Trump’s plan would transform the hallowed ground of the White House into a rowdy arena for blood sports. If it goes ahead, the event will be like a scene out of Idiocracy and serve as definitive proof that nothing is sacred for this administration, which will sacrifice any dignity or decorum to please the president’s wishes.
