Former WWE Superstar turned MMA Fighter CM Punk recently took part in a UFC 225 Media Day as he prepared to face fellow 0-1 fighter Mike Jackson at the event. During a scrum at the media day, Punk was asked about the recent controversy with President Donald Trump canceling a planned visit to the White House on Tuesday by Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles, and specifically, if he would accept a similar invitation.
Below is what CM Punk said:
“Number one, I would not be invited.” “Number two, no I would not go.”
When asked why he would not accept, Punk took some shots at the President by saying the following:
“If David Duke invites me over for tacos, I’m not going to David Duke’s house.” “Come on, I call it like I see it. A racist is a racist. I don’t care if you’re at the White House, or you live down the street from me, I’m not hanging out with you.”
