When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king. The palace becomes a circus.

I hope lighting strikes and burns it all to the ground. What an absolute embarrassing display.

Because benjamin franklin, that isn't a possibility here.

Honestly, if I was one of the fighters, I'd've quit the moment they told us we weren't getting paid in real money but in Trump crypto instead.

Is this for real?

Apparently it's just the bonuses (the headlines made it sound like the entire fee), but I still wouldn't be happy:

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) announced on Friday that it will pay bonuses to fighters in a form of cryptocurrency issued by [a] Trump family business

That's too bad. At least they're bonuses suck.

Wonder if the lighting rig they built will get hit by lightning. It's way taller than all the buildings around and it's metal lol.
