Donald Trump joined the chorus of detractors critical of Ronda Rousey after her stunning defeat at UFC 193 on Saturday.
The Republican presidential candidate took to Twitter on Sunday to take a shot at Rousey following her knockout loss to Holly Holm in Melbourne.
"Glad to see @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten - not a nice person!" Trump tweeted.
Trump's barb is an apparent change of heart. He discussed Rousey in an August interview with CNN, insinuating the UFC star liked him and saying "I'd take her on my side as a fighter." Rousey, however, may have draw Trump's ire when she voiced a different opinion of his presidential aspirations.
"I mean, I wouldn't vote for him," Rousey told CNN. "I just really wouldn't trust the guy with running my country, thats all. ... I'm not really going to get into specifics of it, but, I mean, I don't want a reality TV star to be running my country."
In fact, Rousey expressed support for Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders in an interview with Maxim during the run-up to UFC 193.
"I'm voting for Bernie Sanders, because he doesn't take any corporate money," Rousey told Maxim. "I don't think politicians should be allowed to take money for their campaigns from outside interests."
There just are no words for what a putz this guy really is.......everything IS personal to him. What a great leader of the free world he would make....

(43,049 posts)her on your team but then she wouldn't want to be there, so now she's shit?
The leaders of fourth world shitholes talk like that, but potential leaders of civilized countries have other ways of talking about that fight, and champions like Rousey-- if they talk about it at all.
BTW, anyone heard how Rousey is doing? She took a hell of a shot, and for someone who won a fight with a dislocated shoulder being taken out on a stretcher can't be good.
