Donald Trump Celebrates Election Victory at UFC 309 with Elon Musk

Former President Donald Trump received a rousing welcome at Madison Square Garden as he attended UFC 309 to celebrate his recent election victory. The event, held in New York, became a star-studded affair as Trump shared the spotlight with Tesla CEO Elon Musk and key members of his incoming administration.

Entering the arena to thunderous applause and chants of “USA,” Trump took his seat between UFC President Dana White and Musk. The night was marked by camaraderie and celebration, with notable figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Vivek Ramaswamy also in attendance.

Gabbard and Kennedy are set to play pivotal roles in Trump’s new cabinet, while Ramaswamy is slated to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, a cost-cutting initiative Musk has championed.

Trump’s appearance resonated with the audience, especially when he greeted podcaster and UFC announcer Joe Rogan, who recently endorsed the president-elect after hosting him on his popular show. Trump waved to fans and soaked in the cheers as the UFC played a tribute video celebrating his victory over Kamala Harris.

In a symbolic gesture, UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones handed Trump his championship belt after retaining his title. “I want to say a big thank you to President Donald Trump for being here tonight,” said Jones, sparking another wave of applause.

Trump, a longtime supporter of the UFC, has attended numerous events over the years, further cementing his ties to the sport and its community. The evening underscored his renewed political momentum and connections with influential figures across various industries.
