During UFC 299 over the weekend, former President Donald Trump made an appearance at the star-studded event, rubbing elbows with celebrities and sports figures.
Among those he interacted with were San Francisco 49ers standout Nick Bosa and several other notable personalities. Trump was joined by members of his own family, including daughter Ivanka.
However, a video capturing the moment showed Trump embracing Ivanka while seemingly overlooking his grandson standing nearby. This oversight drew criticism from fans, who highlighted the apparent lack of acknowledgment towards his own family member.

“Zero chance he knows the kid’s middle name, birthday, favorite sport,” quipped one observer.
“Trump disregarded his own grandson while hobnobbing with B-list celebrities, leaving the child visibly disappointed. This reveals his true character behind the facade,” noted another commenter.
“The body language is unmistakable. I doubt he even recognizes the kid,” remarked a third.
“I’d be surprised if Trump even remembers the kid’s name. This family’s behavior is consistently distasteful,” added another critic.
“Let’s be honest, he’s probably never met him before, so how would he recognize him? But regardless, it’s unfortunate for the grandson,” suggested another perspective.
Whether an honest oversight or not, Trump’s failure to acknowledge his grandson in such a public setting reflects poorly on him.
