Former President Donald Trump made a grand entrance at UFC 302, a mixed martial arts event held in Newark, New Jersey. The crowd erupted into cheers as he walked to his seat alongside Dana White, the president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Trump took the time to greet several individuals in the audience, earning another round of applause. His presence at the Prudential Center for the match between Islam Makhachev and Dustin Poirier followed his recent conviction on 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection to payments made to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign.
