Dana White Discusses Trump Support Among Celebrities

UFC president Dana White openly supports President Donald Trump, speaking at various Republican conventions to boost Trump’s election campaigns. White, known as a staunch Trump advocate in the sports industry, believes that many celebrities are secretly backing Trump. He shared his views on OutKick’s program ‘Tomi Lahren is Fearless,’ stating, “You’d be shocked. A lot of them are closet fans of Trump.”

Some UFC fighters actively supported Trump in Michigan during the 2024 presidential race. Dana White and President Trump attended the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House, where White further expressed his admiration for the former president.

Actor Dennis Quaid highlighted a perceived double standard in Hollywood regarding Trump support during an interview in March. He remarked, “There’s either ‘F Trump’ from the other side or ‘I love Trump’ from a few of us who are vocal about it.” Quaid noted the existence of double standards on various issues, including voting and gender in sports.

Additionally, sports reporter Emily Austin spoke out on Fox News Digital in May about receiving criticism for her Trump support. Despite this, she reported receiving many messages from people who agreed with her views, including NBA players.
