Trump's Tacky UFC Arena Towers Over the White House in New Picture

The White House has found itself overshadowed by the enormous UFC arena President Donald Trump is erecting for his birthday cage match.

The 79-year-old president has transformed the People’s House as preparations continue for the UFC extravaganza he is throwing on June 14 to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday and his own 80th.

A photo posted on Sunday by the X account for UFC on Paramount+, which will stream the fights, shows a massive open-air structure towering over the White House. The hulking arch is wrapped in patriotic red, white, and blue graphics and spans a raised stage and seating area directly in front of the historic residence.

“An updated look at the South Lawn ahead of UFC Freedom 250,” the caption reads.

djt called the WH "a dump."

So he's never had much respect for the history and simple majesty that the house of Washington and Lincoln symbolized. It was purposely designed to not be another Versailles because our nation's president represented the common man and didn't live in a palace.

He is a vainglorious clod.
