Just read Trump announced having a UFC fight at the WH for independence day 2026. Seems a pit tacky for a WH event to me and I like legitimate fights ( lately been questioning some of the UFC fights). Wonder if this is true and if its a little side biz for the Prez? What's ur thoights?

The great Republican President Abraham Lincoln wrestled at the White House.

"Another time, Julia Taft’s two brothers joined Tad and Willie in a wrestling match with the President. Hearing the racket, the nanny rushed to quell it, but opening the door, “beheld the President lying on the floor with the four boys trying to hold him down.” Noting the President’s “broad grin” and turning to leave, the responsible, self-possessed girl heard Tads’ taunt: “Julie, come sit on his stomach!”

We can imagine Julie’s eye-rolling. But remember, of the 16 men who had served in this nation’s highest office, this was the President who most enjoyed wrestling, a high-spirited tussle and public spectacle that his fellow self-reliant citizens of the West—Kentucky and Illinois—also took a great deal of pleasure in. In fact, Lincoln had long since established his reputation for physical strength by besting the leader of the Clary’s Grove boys, a gang of frontier toughs and braggarts, in a renowned grappling match that took place in the small town of New Salem, Illinois in 1831. A lanky 6’4” and 185 pounds and toughened by hard work, Lincoln is said to have lifted burly Jack Armstrong over his head in a decisive move that gained the respect of the village and made the two contestants fast and good-humored friends.""

I see nothing wrong with having a fight at the White House. We are not a weak, pacifist country. We are a country of real men. Led by a real man.

How much of it will our tax payer cover of the production and how much will Dana White make off of it? That's my biggest hang up. Bet it will be the cheapest UFC event for Dana White and the most profitable. Looks like a little side biz to me.

Yeah, he said that might happen.

He said if it did, Dana White would foot the bill.

Politicians should fight at the white house with all proceeds going to charity.

Pelosi vs MGT

AOC vs Boeberrt

Schumer Vs McConnel

Michelle Obama vs Hillary Clinton (I know they're both Democrats but I'm pretty sure they hate each other)

Biden vs Trump for the main fight

Thanks for the info. Been horse back all morning and didn't read the article. That seems more on the up and up

Now that would be epic
Maybe throw Savell and Catch in as the co main event

All this talk of who will foot the bill and folks forget a few things. We aren't electing a figurehead to put on a shelf nor is the Whitehouse some sort of National Monument museum piece. The President is the First Citizen, a person just like us, and the White House is a private residence and office suite. Matter of fact there are things built into the operation of the White House to delineate that. For instance we do not pay for the meals of the President and his household, that comes out of his own pocket and has since Washington.

Considering Trump donates his salary and pays for other improvements like the flag pole outta his pocket, I believe him when he says White is footing the bill.

I'm in. Except I'd vote MTG vs AOC and Obama vs Trump. I wouldn't invite Savell, instead of fighting he'd be trying to pull down the men's pants....

I think a fight at the Whitehouse sounds great.

How about pitting Netanyahu vrs. Ali Khamanei

I"d watch Mcconell and Schumer if Savell could donate 2 sets of longhorns to mount on their walkers

Y'all got MTG matched up with the wrong one, her and that mouthy Crockett she's always jaw'n with!

I am thrilled to see we still have people not reading the whole thought about what Trump says, and are quick to place it as an additional advertisement for where they got it from !!

It carries forth my continued saying that hardly anyone knows or can figure out how Trump speaks and acts through his actions

He is a business man not a politician, he cares not what he says will upset those who feel he is taking advantage of his state of office, and he knows he is and he revels in it, as it continues to put the spot light on him just as how he intended it to !

Confusion is almost the whole part of winning any battle !!

Its gonna be a championship fight he said.

Sounds like Dana will foot the bill. If it doesn't happen, I guess we could light up the Capital with rainbow colors again!

Ol' Joe will be worm dirt by then.

Anyone that will blister the non-stop mouth of Elizabeth Warren! Throw the RINO Murkowski in the ring, while they are at it!

biden's brain appears to be already worm food.
