Former world heavyweight champion boxer Mike Tyson has come out in support of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Tyson, who is set to return to the ring later this year to face influencer Jake Paul, was appearing on a podcast when he endorsed the former president, adding that he “made a lot of money” under Republican presidents compared to Democratic ones.
“So what,” he told the podcast when announcing his support. “If I like Donald Trump and I wanna vote for him, so what?”

Some on social media drew a comparison with Tyson’s formidability during the prime of his boxing career.

Iron Mike has made a number of comments about Trump in recent years having recently compared the conviction against him to the treatment of Black Americans in the legal system.
Question regarding support for Trump is becoming the new loyalty oath, which libs condemned for decades. “Are you now or have you ever been a supporter for the (insert own pejorative here) Donald Trump?” Expect a Harris admin to resurrect the HUAC with the Bureau’s panty sniffers hunting down every voter.
NO ONE needs to apologize for their support for Trump!
