UFC President Dana White has publicly criticized Kamala Harris, stating that her struggles with public speaking should raise concerns about her leadership capabilities.
White shared a viral clip of Harris during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where she stumbled over her response to a question about what “major changes” she would implement if elected, compared to her role in the current administration with Joe Biden.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), White expressed his alarm over Harris’ inability to articulate her ideas clearly. “I don’t like to post a lot of political content, but this clip should scare EVERYONE,” White, 55, wrote. He continued his criticism by stating, “She is the sitting VP and running for President of the United States. She is incapable of putting a sentence together without a teleprompter and even she appears to know she is in way over her head.”

White emphasized that the upcoming election is crucial, and Harris’ performance in interviews should concern voters. “This election is very important and this along with the many other clips of her attempting to answer questions should SCARE THE S–T OUT OF YOU!!!” he added.

White, a longtime supporter of former President Donald Trump, has been vocal about his endorsement of Trump in the 2024 presidential race.
He has praised Trump for his commitment to “fighting for the future of the country.”
White’s comments about Harris reflect growing concerns from some about her readiness to lead, especially as she campaigns to succeed Biden as the Democratic nominee.
Harris has faced scrutiny throughout her campaign for her media appearances, with critics pointing to her frequent “word salad” responses in interviews.
Her performance on The Late Show was no exception, drawing backlash for its perceived lack of coherence. In her response to Colbert’s question, Harris attempted to differentiate herself from Biden and Trump, but her answer was seen as meandering.
“Well I’m obviously not Joe Biden. That would be one change,” Harris responded, adding, “But also I think it’s important to say with 28 days to go, I’m not Donald Trump.”
The audience responded with applause, but Harris’ subsequent comments received mixed reactions.
She continued, “And so when we think about the significance of what this next generation of leadership looks like, were I to be elected president, it is about — frankly, I love the American people, and I believe in our country. I love that it is our character and nature to be an ambitious people. You know, we have aspirations, we have dreams. We have incredible work ethic.”
Harris then shifted her remarks toward her “opportunity economy” agenda, referencing her mother’s experience as a small business owner.
However, critics quickly seized on the interview as another example of Harris’ struggle to effectively communicate her policies and vision.
White’s endorsement of Trump is not new.
He has been a vocal advocate for the former president and even delivered a speech at the Republican National Convention in July, where he praised Trump’s resilience and dedication to the country. “The mainstream media likes to push the narrative that he doesn’t care about anybody but himself,” White said at the time. “I absolutely know that’s not the truth because I’ve known this guy for 25 years.”
White went on to describe Trump as “the toughest, most resilient” individual he has encountered, adding, “I’m in the tough guy business and this guy is the toughest, most resilient I’ve seen in my life.”
UFC President @DanaWhite: Take any of the greatest fighters of all time—Trump is #1. The most resilient human being I’ve ever met.
The one thing I can tell you—and this is a fact—this guy loves this country and he loves all Americans. pic.twitter.com/2gaNeONVDX

As the 2024 election approaches, White’s remarks highlight the deep divide between supporters of Trump and those backing Harris.
His critique of Harris’ communication skills may resonate with voters concerned about her readiness for the presidency, while his continued support for Trump reinforces his belief that the former president is best equipped to lead the country.

Listen to this tax and spend totalitarian Marxist dishing the word salad without any way to reduce cost of groceries like energy cost for farmers, which is lower cost of fertilizer, diesel oil, gas for all to put money back in everyone’s pockets. Higher corporate tax is higher costs on producers that Marxist want to control. More supply, more demand, less cost for all.
