18. The perfect snapshot for current day America.

5,000 elite "guests" of Dana White and the White House (a/k/a rich trash and "influencers&quot surrounding a cage where people will beat the shit out of each other for money, glory and fame in front of the White House. I expect fireworks and monster trucks as well. All brought to you by DraftKings, FanDuel, Fanatics, Hard Rock Bet and bet365. I can only hope they let Trump give the opening address so he can ramble on for an hour about his various grievances while simultaneously nodding off and shitting himself. Then he'll steal one of the title belts because he "deserves it for beating up Iran" or something.

I like the part where the taxpayer is paying for all the security and God knows what else (the grift is VERY strong with all parties here).
