Former President Donald Trump, the leading GOP candidate for president in 2024, got a hero’s welcome alongside Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, Kid Rock, and Dana White as they walked into Madison Square Garden in New York City on Saturday night for the big UFC fight.
Trump’s warm welcome in the city he once called home is particularly notable given the fact that New York’s Attorney General, Letitia James, is pursuing civil charges against his iconic company, the Trump Organization, in a trial playing out this past several weeks in court. Trump on Monday testified on the stand in court in downtown Manhattan, just blocks away from where he is on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden.
