“The people have spoken loud and clear. America wants President Trump back in the White House. Think about it: After everything that’s happened in the last few years, this “Winning the election is an amazing achievement and an incredible comeback story,” he said.

“Think about all the things President Trump went through to get back here. All the powerful forces that tried to bring him down: the mainstream media, the partisan prosecutors, the assassins. What this man went through is absolute madness. And just the president. Trump fought all those obstacles, all the attacks, and still came out victorious. He could.

In the end, what it comes down to is Trump “winning,” White said.

UFC star Colby Covington claims he won the fight because he was ‘campaigning for Trump’.

“But, you know what? He is what he is. This guy is a winner. And I always say this, he’s the toughest, toughest guy I’ve ever met and nothing was going to stop him from fighting. Tough for the country he loves.

“He represents what it means to be an American. We are the strongest, strongest people on earth and when we come together, nothing can stop us.”

White and Trump have been improving their relationship over the years. Trump was one of White’s biggest supporters in the early years of the UFC. In turn, White endorsed Trump’s presidential bid.
