Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter

P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.

All these out of town folks loving #Seattle during the #FIFA World Cup and every time some idiot has to weigh in and say “It’s really not beautiful. It’s all a facade.” The city has its problems but it’s STILL A BEAUTIFUL PLACE. Take the month off from fear-mongering.

FFS... please stop forcing professional athletes to wear rainbow hats and jerseys in June. It's not helping.

@jwhittenbergK5 Trashy display at the People’s House.

@joeroganhq It delivered a top tier white trash event with the most crass commentary from a complete troglodyte. Great job guys!

[anastasia beaverhausen @debdog]

@catturd2 Every day you prove the point that MAGA is dumb as a rock.

Dave Portnoy calls on Trump to denounce the Michelle Obama slur that took place on the White House south lawn.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

"The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history.

After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."

@Martina @RGIII @BarbaraComstock 100%. This behavior represents the MAGA mindset.

[anastasia beaverhausen @debdog]

Yes.

[Joaquin Castro @JoaquinCastrotx]

So is this the kind of trash we can expect from @paramountplus (and @cbs) now?

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

Trash

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The White House was built to serve the American people.

Tonight it was used to promote a company the President owns stock in, sell subscriptions, promote corporate sponsors, push Trump crypto, and enrich the President and his family.

The founders warned us about kings enriching themselves from public office.

They did not fight a revolution for this.

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

Absolute trash

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Ok, so let me get this straight…the dude who puked on himself live on tv during his weigh in, is hurling insults at the former First Lady now?

Disgusting. Welcome to the Trump Administration.

[anastasia beaverhausen @debdog]

@Timodc @dburghart Complete trash on the White House lawn. It clocks.

@choeshow @FeelLikePeno JFC @choeshow go touch some grass. It’s STILL a beautiful city.
