Donald Trump completely unfazed by Conor McGregor snapping his leg in trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier has fans stunned – "Even that robot Zuckerberg shows some emotion"
Conor McGregor's last fight against Dustin Poirier ended in an injury for him, much to the horror of the fans in attendance. But the former president of the United States of America, Donald Trump, was seemingly unaffected.
McGregor broke his tibia in the very first round of his UFC 264 main event bout against Poirier. A video uploaded to Twitter captures UFC commentator Jon Anik's live reaction to McGregor injuring himself. The short clip also shows the audience in the background jumping up anxiously and grimacing at McGregor, who is unable to continue.
However, former US president Trump, who was in attendance at the behest of Dana White, remained unmoved as everyone around him reacted dramatically. The tweet said:
"You know Trump has seen some sh*t when he’s just completely unfazed by Conor McGregor snapping his leg vs. Poirier"
You know Trump has seen some shit when he’s just completely unfazed by Conor McGregor snapping his leg vs. Poirier https://t.co/7gmqfnCAgx
One fan pointed out that even Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg showed more emotion when he attended a UFC event live:
"Even that robot zuckerberg shows some emotion"
@oocmma even that robot zuckerberg shows some emotion
Other fans joked about him being distracted or unable to see the incident inside the octagon:
"He can’t see that far #Glaucoma"
"He has no idea what’s going on"
@oocmma He can’t see that far #Glaucoma
@oocmma He has no idea what’s going on
@oocmma He is distracted by the nice sparkly lights in the distance
@oocmma Nah, he’s probably thinking what does this have to do with him
Others pointed out that Trump may be desensitized to the brutality, having been exposed to the nation's darkest secrets:
"Hard to top what he saw on Weiner's laptop"
"Imagine knowing about aliens and seeing their alien genitals in CIA reports. A dude snapping his leg is no big deal."
@oocmma hard to top what he saw on Weiner's laptop👀
@oocmma Imagine knowing about aliens and seeing their alien genitals in CIA reports. A dude snapping his leg is no big deal.
@oocmma I think it’s called a lack of empathy
@oocmma Dude saw Fedor body Arlovski in mid air, he's been in the trenches.
@oocmma I think it’s called a lack of empathy
One user attributed the philosophical trait of stoicism to Trump being unfazed:
"He’s stoic"
@oocmma He’s stoic
@oocmma Ice water in that man’s veins
