The former UFC Interim Welterweight Champion has long been a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, going against several fighters refusing to visit the White House in 2018 as he brought his belt to the Oval Office. Covington, however, was nowhere to be found when Dana White announced the card for June's event on the South Lawn of the White House. And it was something he told " Bloody Elbow " that Eric and Donald Trump Jr.
were filling to bat for him over. "I've talked to them extensively about it," he said. "They're like, 'We'd love to help and if you want us to go to our dad we could.
' But they've got so much bigger things to focus on. Eric Trump runs the whole organization with all those hotels and Don Jr. is a very busy man.
