Dana White gets candid about Donald Trump assassination attempt after 30-minute phone call with the ex-president

Dana White recently opened up about his lengthy conversation with Donald Trump after the former POTUS survived an assassination attempt. White lauded Trump as the "ultimate American bada*s" and heaped praise on the real estate mogul's resilience in the face of fatal danger.

Last weekend, Trump addressed a large crowd at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. During the event, a sniper positioned on a nearby rooftop fired at the former POTUS and attempted to assassinate him. However, the bullet missed Trump and grazed his upper right ear. The 78-year-old was immediately rushed by Secret Service agents and taken to safety.

Given that Trump and White share a close relationship, it's no surprise that the UFC president got to speak to the former POTUS after the harrowing event. During a recent conversation with ESPN's Pat McAfee, White recalled speaking to Trump and said:

"He is one of the toughest, most resilient guys I have ever met in my life... Everybody wants to act like a tough guy, well when the s**t goes down, you find out who tough guys are and who tough guys are not. This guy is the legitimate, ultimate American bada** of all time."

White continued:

"I called him as soon as I landed, he was already home from the hospital. We talked for 30 minutes... I'm telling you, I have never known a human being like this in my life. He's literally the toughest, most bada** guy of all time."
