Then-UFC interim welterweight champion Colby Covington visited the White House alongside Dana White and even met the President. Trump was also seated cage-side at Madison Square Garden for UFC 244 back in November of 2019. His brief appearance was a big talking point in the media as he was already the seating president by then.
