Donald Trump may be public enemy No.1 in the eyes of some … but not to Jorge Masvidal — the UFC star visited the former President at a rally in Florida Tuesday evening hours after 45 was arraigned in NYC.
Masvidal says he was invited to Mar-a-Lago … the same night Trump returned from the northeast aboard his private jet, where he appeared before a judge in a Manhattan courtroom, pleading not guilty to 34 felony charges.
“I didn’t even sneak in here,” Masvidal can be heard saying before he enters Trump’s event. “This is Trump Nation.”
During the packed rally, Trump ripped Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg for what DT says is a politically motivated attack.
“This fake case was brought only to interfere with the upcoming 2024 election and it should be dropped immediately,” Trump told the crowd, which included Jorge.
Of course, the charges relate to a $130k hush money payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels during his first presidential campaign.

DT also sounded off on Judge Juan Merchan, calling him a “Trump-hating judge.”
It’s unclear if Masvidal got any FaceTime with Trump — the resort was packed.
The visit shows Jorge is still rockin’ with his friend, despite the world’s most polarizing man now facing criminal charges … though it’s not really surprising.

Trump and Masvidal have a friendship. Jorge even stumped for the former prez as he ran his re-election campaign in 2020.
Now, the question is, might Donald make an appearance this Saturday in Miami … where Jorge Masvidal is fighting Gilbert Burns in the co-main event at UFC 287.
Trump’s no stranger to UFC fights … he’s super tight with Dana White, and even shared an embrace with Gamebred before Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier 3 in July 2021.
