UFC fighters, which have overwhelmingly supported Trump during this election took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the event. One of those fighters is the outspoken and controversial former UFC champion Sean Strickland.
Moderator “Who is willing to enslave our citizens in debt and if needs be send our soldiers to die to protect Ukraine and Israel”
VP candidates “Me.. Me.. Me.. funnel us taxpayers money, fuck Americans”

Strickland, like many Americans, was interested in the United States’ response to the wars in Ukraine, Palestine, and Israel. He seemingly feels like neither the Republican nor the Democratic candidate had a real answer for the burning question.
“Moderator ‘Who is willing to enslave our citizens in debt and if needs be send our soldiers to die to protect Ukraine and Israel’ VP candidates ‘Me.. Me.. Me.. funnel us taxpayers money, f*ck Americans’,” he tweeted.
He also commented on a CBS News video of the debate.

Strickland then brought up nuclear weapons and North Korea.
I ran “we may have a nuke” Well fuck we gotta bomb them they’re neighbors with Israel…
North Korea “we have all the nukes and bombs and we are gonna nuke you” they’re good, fuck Korea. You ain’t Israel. Enjoy your neighbors. #VicePresidentialDebate
