Donald Trump branded 'white trash president' by Fox News fans over new White House look [View all]

President Donald Trump faced backlash from his conservative fanbase over the White House's new look.

On June 11, Fox News shared an online clip of the UFC Freedom 25 event, set to take place in three days, which coincides with President Trump's 80th birthday. The footage was taken on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, D.C. The camera zoomed in and panned beneath the star-spangled "claw" steel structure that will cover the Octagon.

The centerpiece appeared to be towering over the White House in a wide shot. It comes after a pilot claims he was nearly blinded by the UFC White House lighting and filed a safety report.

The caption stated, "The White House lawn has been transformed for fight night. A UFC Octagon now sits just steps from the White House, surrounded by plenty of seats for an audience.

"The setup is for the upcoming "Freedom 250" event on June 14, weeks before America prepares to celebrate its 250th anniversary."

Conservatives took to social media to slam the UFC event, arguing that the president was being tasteless about it.

One person said, "Tacky as hell. Trump is a white trash president."
