Hunter Biden Challenges Donald Trump Jr. to a ‘Cage Match’ After Slamming UFC Freedom 250 Event
Hunter Biden is ready to rumble.
Biden, 56, challenged Donald Trump Jr. to a cage match while criticizing President Donald Trump‘s controversial UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House.
While the former first son praised UFC CEO Dana White and Joe Rogan for the “brand” they “built” as “an American success story,” he wanted to clarify why many people were offended that the event took place on the South Lawn at the White House.
“My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us,” he wrote in a lengthy message addressed to the former Fear Factor host shared via X on Thursday, June 18. “Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.”
Biden pointed out that the White House “does not belong” to Trump or any other president.
“It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for. This is not Rome,” he continued. “Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House.”
Biden ended the letter by writing, “Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.”
His response came after Rogan, 58, defended those who attended the event during the Wednesday, June 17, episode of The Joe Rogan Experience.
“So many people are trying to make it a partisan thing,” Rogan said. “They’re mad at people for being there. Like, ‘Oh, you support Trump.’ It’s a [expletive] fight at the White House. Doesn’t mean you endorse foreign policy. Like, shut the [expletive] up. Just please stop.”
Several celebrities reportedly refused to attend the event, including Guy Ritchie, Adam Sandler and Tom Brady, per The Independent, while others like Shane Gillis and Nate Bargatze made appearances.
Bargatze has received a considerable amount of backlash online for his attendance, but he has yet to address the criticism.
