American Top Team, home to the likes of Dustin Poirier and Jorge Masvidal, recently took to their X account and shared a tweet that many MMA fans can relate to. The Florida-based MMA gym saw an opportunity and took a sneaky jibe at Kamala Harris.
Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris currently holds a marginal 3-percentage-point lead over Republican Donald Trump – 45% to 42%. Both candidates are locked in a tight race and are looking to win the presidential election. While the gap between the two remained steady, the American Top Team has found a unique way to help Donald Trump get the lead back. They now want Drake to pick Kamala Harris as the winner of the upcoming elections.
For the people who are not aware, the Canadian rapper Drake is famous in the MMA sphere for his ‘Drake’s Curse.’ His past records show that whichever athlete he supports tends to lose in their fights. Drake is a huge fan of MMA and has often placed bets on many fights in the UFC. Actually, he does not even have to bet on a fighter. He walked out with Conor McGregor for the UFC 229 weigh-ins and the Irishman lost the biggest grudge match of his life. His most recent curse struck at UFC 305 where Israel Adesanya, who he bet $450,000, lost to Dricus Du Plessis via submission – the first time for the Kiwi. Unfortunately for Drake, this is not the first time he has lost huge amounts of money. His sports betting record reportedly sits at an abysmal 17-189.

The billionaire pointed out how the media portrays a very wrong picture of the former POTUS, which led to all the confusion. Rogan, who never shies away from sharing his opinion on important topics, agreed to the claims. While speaking to his guest, he said, “The thing that distorts everyone’s vision is Donald Trump as a human being. That’s the thing. It’s also the media’s depiction of him, which has been grossly distorted.” Palihapitiya did agree with the fact and shared how meeting with Trump in person was a completely different experience altogether.
