Overview
- In an Instagram video posted late last week, Mitchell said he is "not with Donald Trump no more," calling the president a corrupt leader he no longer supports.
- He cited Trump’s failure to release Jeffrey Epstein files, sending U.S. tax dollars to Israel and Ukraine, and blaming beef farmers for high prices, adding, "He talked a good game… I was fooled."
- Mitchell urged Christians to read Revelation 13:3 and declared Trump fits the passage, referring to him as the "beast" described in the verse.
- The about-face follows a year-old pledge that he would "take a bullet and die" for Trump and comes from a fighter known for inflammatory remarks, including praising Adolf Hitler and previously suggesting Elon Musk could be an Antichrist figure.
- The clip was widely covered and drew mixed reactions in comments, and outlets reported no notable public response from Trump or UFC leadership.
