On a lively morning in Florida, Donald Trump took the stage to celebrate his projected victory in the 2024 Presidential Election.
With Bryson DeChambeau and UFC President Dana White by his side, the 78-year-old Republican candidate embraced the moment as the Associated Press declared him the winner with 279 electoral votes, surpassing Kamala Harris’ 223.
Trump’s victory was marked by significant wins in key swing states like North Carolina, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Georgia, which helped him secure the 270 seats needed to regain the presidency he lost in 2020.
A Celebration with Sporting Legends
As the crowd in Florida cheered, Trump appeared in high spirits, basking in the success of his political comeback.
Among his guests were two prominent sports figures—DeChambeau, one of golf’s top players, and Dana White, the CEO of UFC.
White, a long-time supporter of Trump, praised the former president, calling him “the most hard-working man I’ve ever met” before giving what seemed like his own personal victory speech.
Trump also made sure to mention DeChambeau’s impressive career, playfully remarking on the golfer’s skill, noting that he can hit a ball “slightly longer” than Trump himself.
Although DeChambeau, who is known for his powerful drives, was a little delayed in joining the stage, Trump made sure to highlight his achievements.
“We have the US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau here,” Trump said, “He’s got a great career going.”
DeChambeau, a two-time US Open winner and runner-up at the PGA Championship, eventually took the stage, giving an awkward wave to Trump.
Dana White’s Victory Speech
Once DeChambeau had joined the celebration, White took the opportunity to speak at the podium.
His remarks were filled with admiration for Trump’s resilience.
“Nobody deserves this more than him and his family,” White declared.
He spoke passionately about the challenges Trump has faced, referencing how he has continued forward despite relentless opposition.
White’s speech quickly took an unexpected turn when he began thanking several popular figures in the streaming world, including the Nelk Boys, Adin Ross, Theo Von, and Joe Rogan.
“This is karma, ladies and gentlemen,” he concluded, before thanking America and signing off with a nod to his favorite influencers.
A Touch of Golf, Politics, and Sports
Trump’s close ties with the world of golf are well-documented, with his company once owning as many as 17 golf courses.
Throughout the night, he highlighted his relationship with the sport, even as DeChambeau made a late appearance.
The event was an unusual blend of politics, sports, and celebrity endorsements, leaving many to wonder: what’s next for this unlikely partnership between the worlds of sports and politics?
