Mel Gibson has met and hangs out with Donald Trump and Roger Stone at UFC 290 in Las Vegas.
Former President Donald Trump drew a raucous reaction from the audience at UFC 290 on Saturday evening when he showed up for the mixed martial arts event amid a weekend of campaign stops in Las Vegas and Iowa.
While at T-Mobile Arena, Trump chatted with notable political allies and celebrities, including actors Mel Gibson and Mark Wahlberg and celebrity chef Guy Fieri. Roger Stone, Trump’s longtime friend, former political adviser and weekend travel companion, tweeted a photo of himself, Trump and Hollywood star Gibson in conversation during the event.
Photos of Fieri and Trump showed the two men conversing with one another close to the octagon where the fights take place.
The images of the pair meeting one another sparked strong reactions from fans of Trump and Fieri, who dubs himself the Mayor of Flavor Town.
Stone, a longtime political provocateur, traveled with the campaign in Trump’s personal aircraft over the weekend and has a long history with the former president. Stone drew scrutiny from the now-defunct House Jan. 6 committee for his actions in the lead-up to the attack on the U.S. Capitol in 2021, and invoked the 5th amendment when subpoenaed by the committee later that year. Stone was also at the heart of probes into Russia’s efforts to influence the 2016 election, and was convicted on charges stemming from then-special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s election meddling, for which Trump later pardoned him.
The former president was met with cheers from the crowd and he high-fived fans when he stepped out into the T-Mobile Arena for UFC 290 on Saturday, July 8.
Trump continued to greet the crowd as he walked over to the analyst desk where he met with podcast host and UFC commentator Joe Rogan, as well as numerous other celebrities.
Johnson’s tweet has since been viewed around 209,600 times and received nearly 9,000 likes since being shared on July 8.
