Remember how #Vance said he was in constant communication with #Trump?

Well, Trump was at a #UFC fight in Miami while #Iran talks collapsed.

On his way to Florida, Trump said it did not matter to him if a deal with Iran was reached or not: “We win, regardless,” he said.

Trump Was Watching a U.F.C. Fight in Miami While Iran Talks Collapsed

On his way to Florida, President Trump said it did not matter to him if a deal with Iran was reached or not: “We win, regardless,” he said.

The New York Times

On Saturday evening, as #JDVance took a podium in Pakistan & said no deal had been reached to end the #war in #Iran, #Trump was in Miami watching a #MMA fight.

Trump spent several hours orbited by Secy of State #MarcoRubio; a few of his children; some #UFC officials; Sergio Gor, the US ambassador to India; the recording artist #VanillaIce [seriously]; #DanBongino, the fmr deputy director of the FBI; & the #manosphere shepherd #JoeRogan. [only the best people 🤦🏼‍♀️]

He was surrounded by people, but #Trump was somehow an isolated figure [cuz nobody likes him]. People mostly circulated around him, checking in with updates & then leaving again. For the most part, Trump sat & impassively watched as blood & saliva sprayed out from the fighters beating each other silly in front of him.

…After a week spent largely out of sight but lashing out at his enemies on social media, #Trump resurfacing at a match seemed designed to provide him with a soothing balm of male aggression, musky sweat, & cheering supporters — not unlike one of his political rallies, just with shirtless fighters.

Round after round, fight after fight, Trump watched as pairs of competitors sparred in a cage covered in ads for Monster energy drinks, assorted crypto & betting sites, & Bud Light beer.

@Nonilex

Trump went to the UFC fight for one reason

...to make a draft-dodging, mentally and physically declining 79-year-old widely understood to be failing on #Iran , look like a tough guy.

@TCatInReality @Nonilex He likes blood, gore, violence and brutality as long as it does not happen to him personally. This is how he gets his pleasure. It’s why he says what he does when he posts AI videos of violence, or some madman beating a woman to death in public. He’s a conscienceless, amoral, thug and a bully.

@HarriettMB @Nonilex

He is all those things.

But everything he does in public is for show.
