"This is a self-burial" - Ex-UFC champion reacts as Elon Musk labels Kamala Harris' latest comment on Donald Trump a "parody"
A former UFC champion has criticized Kamala Harris for her recent remarks regarding former POTUS (President of the United States) Donald Trump. The MMA fighter's comments came in response to a jibe directed by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk at Harris.
Harris recently spoke to Bret Baier on Fox News' 'Special Report.' The 59-year-old Harris and Baier clashed on several points about the ruling Democratic establishment's socio-political policies and decisions. When asked what the Democratic establishment has achieved in the last three-and-a-half years they've been in power, Harris stated:
"And Donald Trump has been running for office ... Come on, come on. You and I both know what I'm talking about. You and I both know what I'm talking about."
Watch the exchange in the interview below (15:58):
Kamala Harris seemed to suggest that Donald Trump -- who was POTUS from Jan. 20, 2017, to Jan. 20, 2021 -- has perpetuated divisiveness in America "over the last decade." Baier cited a 'Direction of Country' poll to imply most Americans were dissatisfied with where their nation is headed. Harris responded by seemingly blaming Trump for undermining the Biden-Harris administration's efforts.
On that note, South Africa-born U.S.-based tech billionaire Elon Musk, who's currently the world's richest person, officially endorsed Donald Trump alongside him at a recent rally. Musk, who's often criticized Harris, jibed over Harris' Fox News interview. Responding to a tweet featuring footage from the interview, Musk wrote:
"Funnier than any parody"
Former UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling also weighed in on the same. Responding to Elon Musk's tweet, 'Funk Master' indicated that he was disappointed because Harris didn't provide a straightforward answer and instead tried to shove the blame on Donald Trump.
Sterling tweeted:
"This is a self-burial if I've ever seen one. Sheeesh. I just want some straight answers and not finger-pointing at the person NOT in office."
UFC CEO and president Dana White's recent warning concerning Kamala Harris
UFC CEO Dana White has consistently maintained that he steers clear of politics and doesn't judge others for their political views. Nevertheless, the UFC boss has also emphasized that Donald Trump is a longtime support of the promotion, as well as his close friend. White recently sounded off on Trump's political rival Kamala Harris.
Having introduced and endorsed Donald Trump onstage at the RNC (Republican National Convention) earlier this year, Dana White notably posted a tweet earlier this month, opining that Kamala Harris doesn't deserve to be president.
Taking to X, White referenced a video clip from Harris' appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and warned that the footage "should scare" everyone.
