Nigerian-American martial artist Kamaru Usman has openly endorsed former U.S. President Donald Trump.
In his statement, Usman shared that while he grew up in a Democratic household, his views have evolved over time, leading him to support Trump.
Usman made this statement on X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter.
Usman tweeted, “Growing up Democrat and starting to understand the state of politics over the last few decades I know how I want to live and how I want to raise my family @realDonaldTrump.”
His words quickly caught the attention of fans and political observers, given his background and upbringing in a Democratic household.
While Usman did not go into further detail about his reasons, his support for Trump is seen by many as an endorsement of the former president’s values and vision for America.
