On Saturday, President Donald Trump made a notable appearance at UFC 314, held at Miami's Kaseya Center, where he was met with an enthusiastic reception from the audience.
Known for his appreciation of the UFC, President Trump arrived to a standing ovation and chants of "USA," accompanied by his granddaughter Kai Trump and other family members.
As reported by Gateway Pundit, President Trump was in the company of several distinguished individuals, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Senator Ted Cruz, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., FBI Director Kash Patel, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and DOGE leader Elon Musk. The event also saw the presence of Joe Rogan and Shaquille ONeal.
Media outlets, however, have zeroed in on a fleeting incident involving actress Cheryl Hines, a staunch Democrat and the spouse of RFK Jr. A viral clip from the event captured President Trump shaking hands with RFK Jr. while seemingly overlooking Hines, who had extended her hand. This moment was quickly seized upon by the media, generating headlines that suggested a deliberate snub.
Nevertheless, subsequent photographs depict President Trump later interacting with both Kennedy Jr. and Hines, suggesting that any initial oversight was inadvertent. In the bustling environment of a UFC event, with President Trump navigating a throng of admirers, it is entirely plausible that he simply did not notice her gesture. The atmosphere was charged, distractions were numerous, and President Trump was intent on acknowledging as many attendees as possible.
