White has become a reference at the RNC and will make her third consecutive appearance at the event.
Trump and White have a long-standing relationship, with White recalling at the 2016 RNC that the former president was an early supporter of the UFC.
The former president and his partners bought the UFC in 2001.
“It was basically considered a blood sport,” White said at the time.
“State athletic commissions did not support us, areas around the world refused to host our events.
“Nobody took us seriously, nobody. Wait for Donald Trump.
“Donald was the first guy who recognized the potential we saw in the UFC and encouraged us to build our business.
“He hosted our first two events at his location, dealt with us personally, got in the trenches with us and made a deal that worked for everyone.”
Trump and White were recently seen together at UFC 302, where they entered the Prudential Center in New Jersey together.
The pair received massive applause from the crowd as they walked towards the Octagon.
White also isn’t shy about her love for Trump and recently shared a story about her support for the former president.
During an appearance on This Past Weekend With Theo Von, White said he refused to distance himself from Trump after a sponsor requested it.
Specifically, White told them to “fuck off.”
However, White has previously shared that he respects President Biden as he is the sitting president, and will never dislike someone because of who they voted for.

Douglas Burgum: A billionaire and two-term governor of North Dakota who supported Trump and has since become a personal friend, frequenting television appearances, joining the former president at fundraising events and even traveling to New York for the trial Trump’s crime.
JD Vance: A venture capitalist, US senator and writer of the best-selling Hillbilly Elegy, Vance is one of Trump’s most loyal political partners. On Wednesday, Vance admitted he would be “disappointed” if he wasn’t picked by Trump
Marco Rubio: Florida Senator and former presidential candidate. A native Spanish speaker and son of Cuban immigrants, experts believe this choice could help Trump win over some Hispanic voters.
Tim Scott: The South Carolina senator is the only black Republican in the Senate. Scott worked closely with Trump while in office on issues including Trump’s tax cuts, opportunity zones and criminal justice reform legislation.
Elise Stefanik: The only woman on Trump’s list, the congresswoman from New York was an advisor to former House Speaker Paul Ryan and also served in President George W. Bush’s administration. But during Trump’s four years in office, she became one of his most loyal and outspoken supporters. In 2022, Stefanik was the first member of House Republican leadership to endorse Trump’s campaign, and did so before announcing that he would run again.
Well Carson: Carson, a renowned former neurosurgeon, served as secretary of Housing and Urban Development during the Trump administration.
Byron Donalds: The 45-year-old Florida congressman has become one of Trump’s most prominent black conservative supporters. Donald was recently captured on audio saying:
“See, during Jim Crow, the Black family was together. During Jim Crow, not only were more blacks conservative — blacks have always had a conservative mindset — but more blacks voted conservative.”
“Obviously I didn’t vote for President Biden. He’s my president. He’s the president of the United States right now and I’m an American,” White told Tucker Carlson.
“I neither like nor hate anyone who voted for Biden. The fact that you are the kind of person who would actually hate someone because of who they voted for shows me exactly who you are. you anyway.
“You’re not my kind of person and I don’t want to be friends with you either. So the feeling is very mutual.
“And it’s not because of who you voted for. It’s because of how you behave.
