A UFC fighter said he might attend pro-Trump rallies with other fighters after seeing the violence against “Million MAGA March” rally-goers on Saturday.
“I bet I can get a couple of teammates and start attending these things #supernecessary,” Jorge Masvidal wrote on Twitter Saturday night. “And I say this not to promote violence. To keep the peace. We are all in this together #theressurection.”

Masvidal is an outspoken Trump supporter who campaigned for the president, with a focus on denouncing socialism.
“I’m gonna let you in on something. The Democrats just think that they’re entitled to the Latino vote. They think that we just have to hand it over to them. That’s right. We sure as hell don’t,” he said in an ad for Trump in October.
“They’ve got to show us what they can do for us, what they can do for our communities. We’re not going to buy the same wolf tickets and false promises that destroyed great countries like Venezuela and Cuba. It’s not gonna happen,” he continued.
