In news that sounds like it came from a Red Bull-fueled fever dream, Donald Trump — yes, THE spray-tanned chaos goblin and 79-year-old chaos magnet — says he wants to host an actual UFC fight on the White House lawn. Like… the literal front yard of America. George Washington is somewhere up in ghost-heaven short-circuiting.
This went down during one of Trump’s ✨ classic ✨ rants at the Iowa State Fairgrounds (of course) where he started yapping about “America250,” which is basically the big 250th birthday bash for the U.S. But instead of balloons and patriotic cupcakes, he’s out here planning gladiator combat on government property. Iconic? Deranged? Yes.
“Does anybody watch UFC? The great Dana White?” he asked, like your uncle who just discovered YouTube. “We’re going to have a full UFC fight, right there on the lawn. 20,000 to 25,000 people. It’s going to be beautiful. Tremendous. Amazing.”
So let’s unpack this:
💥 UFC brawl.
🏛 On the White House grass.
👊 Trump emceeing like it’s WWE: Presidential Edition.
🌭 Probably serving hot dogs with American flag toothpicks.
📺 Streaming live on some unhinged platform like Patriot Prime Video.
He also casually mentioned that every national park and battlefield will host events for America250, which means don’t be surprised if Yosemite gets a Monster Truck Rally and Gettysburg hosts a Fortnite LAN party.
Trump’s been a UFC superfan for years — dude shows up to more fights than Logan Paul at a clout convention — and Dana White (aka UFC boss man) is basically his hype man at this point. So this whole plan is giving “Hold my Diet Coke, I’ve got an idea.”
So yeah. UFC on the South Lawn might actually happen. Abe Lincoln didn’t abolish slavery for us to end up here… but also, he might’ve tuned in. 👀🇺🇸
