Our national debt is more than $40 trillion. The $60 million that the taxpayers spent on the President’s birthday extravaganza…that seems like pocket change. But for most of us, that is a lot of money. If we’re in the hole that much to have two guys beat the crap of each other, I want to see the two guys beat the crap out of each other.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship match was broadcast live only on pay-per-view. There was plenty of money generated for the advertisers on the pad. Bud Light and Dodge Ram come to mind. All of the sponsors had financial entanglements with the Trump organization.

I looked around the internet and was able to find the first fight. It was very brutal, thoroughly awesome. It only lasted about ten minutes. I couldn’t locate video of the following fights.

My friends in Nashville hosted a pay-per-view party of the 1997 boxing match where Mike Tyson bit off a piece of Evander Holyfield’s ear. The oddity of the moment was spectacular. The boxing fans in the room, though, were disappointed that they didn’t get to see a full fight.
