Former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen recently appeared on FLAGRANT, where he talked about a number of topics including how he believes Vince McMahon ran Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
Sonnen said, “You will not convince me that Vince McMahon did not run that [Trump] campaign in 2016. I believe Vince ran that. Vince was the greatest influencer. Vince’s number one thing is, ‘Yes, it is business and entertainment but it’s psychology.’”
On Trump running his campaign like a McMahon WWE event:
“He had catchphrases, he had ‘lock him up,’ he started giving them nicknames, he started having the same songs, it was like walk-out music, and he was having chants from the crowd. It was … his campaign was exactly the way Vince McMahon promotes a WrestleMania.”
