What does Dana White think about the presidential elections and politics as a whole?
White was recently interviewed by CNN live at an airport, wherein, the host asked the UFC CEO about his opinion on Kamala Harris being called a DEI hire. Needless to say, White was pretty upset with the question. He declared that he never judges people by their political views. He also clarified that he didn’t know Harris well enough. However, she did seem like a nice person to White. But when it came to leading the country, White believed that she was not a good fit for the job.
But then White began to fume as he unleashed his opinion on politics. He said, “Politics are the most disgusting, nasty. It’s atrocious, what’s being said. And the things that are being said on one side, are being said on the other side, too. About Trump and about his choice for Vice President. It goes both ways. This isn’t like ‘Oh my God! Look what’s being said about Kamala!’ It goes both ways. They’re both saying it… It has already heated up and gotten nasty. And like you said earlier, it’s only gonna get nastier.”
Despite the UFC bossman’s strong beliefs, the CNN host wasn’t ready to accept that the insults flew in from both sides. Specifically, she tried to clarify that the Vice President never called JD Vance a DEI hire. But White was adamant about the insult going both ways. Even though the words weren’t the same, White claimed that Harris would say something equally bad about Vance.

Nevertheless, the UFC head honcho had a piece of advice for the public. He said, “As voters, what we need to do is cut through all the BS and we need to look at who do you think is best fit to run the country for the next 4 years. That is our job as voters. All of this stuff is a bunch of nasty BS. Who’s best fit to run the country? You, as a voter, that’s what you need to decide. Not ‘Oh my God, he said this’ and ‘Oh my God, she said that’. There’s gonna be a lot of that over the next several months…”
