Trump attends UFC 299 with daughter Ivanka after blasting Biden over Laken Riley at Georgia rally
Just hours after taking a dig at President Joe Biden, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump attended UFC 299 in Florida. The ex-POTUS sat cageside with his daughter, Ivanka Trump, Saturday night.
As he entered alongside UFC president Dana White, he received a standing ovation ahead of the Sean O’Malley – Marlon Vera fight.

Upon his entry into the Kaseya Centre in Miami, Kid Rock’s American Badass was played in the background. After a brief meet and greet, the presumptive GOP nominee sat alongside his daughter and son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
As half of the family reunited, Melania Trump apparently snubbed the event. Several videos from Saturday’s fight night were shared by UFC content accounts on social media.
Trump’s outing comes shortly after his campaign rally in Rome, Georgia, where he called out his rival, Joe Biden, for mispronouncing the name of murdered 22-year-old nursing student, Laken Riley. “He got Laken’s name wrong. Lincoln. Mixing her up with the football coach,” Trump said as he blasted Biden.
“Joe Biden went on television and apologized for calling Laken’s murderer an illegal. Biden should be apologizing for apologizing to this killer,” he continued, per Associated Press.
“He’s got no regret, he’s got no empathy, no compassion, and worst of all, he has no intention of stopping the deadly invasion that stole precious Laken’s beautiful American life,” he added.
