After his disgraceful and downright humiliating departure from the White House at the beginning of this year, it took scandal-ridden former President Donald Trump quite a bit of time to venture back out into the public eye.
After a few weeks of seemingly hiding out in his Florida Mar-a-Lago resort, where he retreated after his eviction notice from the People’s House, he started with a handful of photos from his golf course. He eventually moved on to a few official statements and words through his super PAC. But, this is Donald Trump we’re talking about here after all, and the fact of the matter is, we all knew he was only going to lay low for so long.
It seemed that the lack of attention finally got to Trump’s ego and he began to put himself back out there in pretty much every way he could dream up — official statements, a failed blog, press conferences during which he pretends he’s still president, and reignited MAGA rallies.
And now he’s finally braved the UFC again.

Now, as you’ll recall, one of the last times the former guy attended one of these events he went to the fight in Madison Square Garden where he was promptly met with rambunctious boos from the crowd — I mean, there’s literally no love for Donald Trump left in New York, folks.
Now, this big event was held in Las Vegas, Nevada, but I’m not so sure his welcome was much warmer this time than it was the last.
So far, the opinions are somewhat mixed as far as what sort of reception the ex-president got when he finally made his debut at the big UFC 264 tonight.
Some right-wing Twitter accounts seem to think that Trump was met with applause and even cheers of “USA!”:

However, many others didn’t hear what the Conservative crowd thinks they heard. In fact, quite a few people believe they heard those familiar boos for the guy who tortured this country for four long years:

Some people think they heard both:

To be quite frank, the event was so loud and rambunctious that I honestly don’t know for sure what the crowd was saying or doing — so I’ll let you make your own determination on that. All I’m saying is… I know exactly what he deserves.
