People seriously confused as Dana White addresses Florida supporters following Trump declaring himself president

UFC boss Dana White said Donald Trump 'never quits'

People have been left seriously confused after Dana White addressed Trump supporters in Florida.

The CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) took to the stage in West Palm Beach after Donald Trump declared himself as the 47th president.

It’s worth noting that the US presidential race is, of course, yet to officially be called with it potentially being some time until it actually is.

But Trump’s just been up on stage at his campaign’s watch party celebrating with a long speech after being projected to win key swing states like Pennsylvania.

And while he spoke about it being the ‘golden age’ for America, Elon Musk being a ‘new star’ and promising to ‘help our country heal’, White also gave a bit of a speech.

The UFC boss said: "This is what happens when the machine comes after you.

"Couldn't stop him. He keeps going forward. Never quits," White said, adding that Trump 'deserves' the win.

White closed his speech by thanking the ‘mighty and powerful Joe Rogan’ who had endorsed Trump on Monday (4 November).

But online, users were just totally baffled by the bloke even being on the stage - let alone giving a speech.

“Lmao why the f**k is Dana White up there,” one wrote.

Another said: “Why is Dana White on stage for Trump??”

Someone else added: “Dana White at the podium… LMAO.”

And a final user echoed: “LMAOOOO WHY IS DANA WHITE THERE.”

White had previously introduced Trump at the Republican National Convention earlier this year, just days after the famous shooting of his ear.

Trump said he survived the assassination attempt ‘for a reason’ as he said he will bring ‘every ounce of spirit and fight’ to the White House.

Joined on stage by JD Vance, his wife Melania Trump and campaign staff, the Republican said he's excited to 'make America great again'.

"We have taken back control of the senate," he said. "Wow, that's good."

Having not yet achieved the official required electoral college votes, he said it was a ‘political victory’ while the crowd kept chanting: “USA, USA, USA.”

"This is a magnificent victory for the American people, that will allow us to make America great again," Trump added.

With being president being the ‘most important job in the world’ and Trump a few Electoral College votes shy of victory, he said he’ll run his government on the motto: “Promises made, promises kept.”

And then after that speech from White and others, Trump left the stage to ‘YMCA’.
