Yes, I do.
I think understanding something.
So just put your blinders on for a minute.
This is not me asking people to agree.
It is asking me them to understand, or at least try to understand from an MMA fight fans perspective.
And this does not mean that they're pro Trump either.
They could be like, well,
We don't like Trump, but you have to understand something.
Fight fans want this kind of thing anyway.
I don't mean large structures on the White House lawn, but they want pomp and circumstance.
They want pageantry.
They want big lights.
They want atmosphere.
And so on a basic level, that definitely was delivered to them.
And there's also another factor to consider here, Dan, which is, you know, it's kind of funny.
Everyone thinks the UFC is riding high, and I do think this event will do a very, very good number.
But if we're looking at the last few years, I have thought that MMA...
the evidence is not conclusive but i have thought that there's been reason to think that mma is contracting um and so they have not had big events they've not had big pageantry i think they've been starving for something like this so they were willing to just take it almost anywhere they could get it and again there are obviously some pro-trump elements some big pro-trump elements in there but it's not just that kind of a thing and
i also saw dan a lot of people in conservative media saying you know donald trump delivered this for us like this is some kind of policy objective and campaign promise that he made good on rather than just having a party that basically the ufc itself was was tasked with having like the event management therein and you know i know there was some polling
to this effect and where you have for example 16 of most americans saying they thought it was a bad idea to have it 31 of republicans which both either number is very very bad i suspect that republican number will go up after this i suspect that they're going to say you know what we really really loved this kind of display of one-third cpac one-third july 4th and then one-third ufc all of these ish all of these different entities working to lift the other
