Former President Donald Trump will join his son, Don Jr., to provide commentary on a “gamecast” for the Evander Holyfield vs. Vitor Belfort boxing match scheduled for the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, according to ESPN. Maybe Trump ran out of lies to tell about 9/11; who knows. “I love great fighters and great fights,” the twice-impeached one-term president said. “I look forward to seeing both this Saturday night and sharing my thoughts ringside. You won’t want to miss this special event.”
According to the outlet, viewers can purchase either the main telecast or the Trump “gamecast” for $49.99. That’s sweet. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden on Saturday will visit all three sites where planes crashed on September 11, 2001, to commemorate the victims and heroes of that day on the 20th anniversary of the attack.
Twitter users pounced.

I’m not sure yet what President Biden will be doing on the 20th anniversary of 9/11.
But I know he won’t be charging $50 per person to listen to him commentating on a boxing match like Trump will be.
Beyond disrespectful…

I can just hear it now: Holyfield is a great fighter, so great, like the Taliban, great fighters, you gotta give them credit, great fighters, terrible what is happening in Afghanistan, we didn’t have that problem when I was president, I defeated Al Qaeda & then Biden….

Once again Trump is outclassed by Romney, who actually boxed against Holyfield. https://t.co/EoYpUHyYzj

“He’s really hitting him, very, very powerfully. This guy is really trying to win the fight, and this guy is getting beaten like a dog. He just is really taking a very tremendous beating- like we’ve never really seen before – every person, man, woman, camera, tv can see it. “

It is completely normal for multi-billionaire business geniuses to pick up a few extra bucks here and there.

I’ll be stunned if he spends more than thirty seconds actually talking about boxing.

If it’s a tacky gig and there’s a buck in it for Trump, he’s in.
