Dana White joins Kid Rock, Ben Shapiro, and others to help raise funds for Donald Trump shooting victims, Tristan Tate allegedly chipped in
In the wake of the shocking shooting at Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a GoFundMe page has been set up to support the victims, with donations nearing $2 million.
The fundraiser, initiated by Meredith O’Rourke, Trump’s national finance director and senior advisor, aims to aid the victims in their recovery and mourning.
The campaign stated:
"President Donald Trump has authorized this account as a place for donations to the supporters and families wounded or killed in today’s brutal and horrific assassination attempt. All donations will be directed to these proud Americans as they grieve and recover. May God bless and unite our nation."
High-profile figures have made substantial contributions to the cause, with Kid Rock and UFC President Dana White each donating $50,000. Reports indicate that Tristan Tate, despite not appearing on the list of donors, contributed $10,000.
Speculation among fans suggests that his name might have been omitted due to recent controversial involvement in human trafficking charges, but they commend his gesture nonetheless.
One fan commented:
“Tristan Tate has shown compassion by donating $10,000 to the family of the citizen who tragically lost their life at the Trump rally. A heartfelt gesture that deserves respect.”
Another fan stated:
"Unfortunately it appears they've censored his name from the donation list. The donation wasn't made for clout, it was made as a genuine gesture in support of the family and to build a bridge of unity between the United States and eastern Europe"
Dana White to Introduce Donald Trump at Republican National Convention
UFC President Dana White is set to introduce former President Donald Trump as the 2024 presidential candidate at the Republican National Convention. The news was exclusively reported by The Wall Street Journal for the July 18 event. White's unwavering support for the former president at previous conventions in 2016 and 2020 stems from their longstanding friendship.
Trump's early support of the UFC, especially during its formative years when it struggled for legitimacy, has cemented White's loyalty. Trump hosted UFC events at his Trump Taj Mahal, helping the organization gain stability. Despite various controversies, White remains a steadfast ally and will once again back Trump at the upcoming convention.
