White said:

I am in the tough guy businesses and this man is the toughest, most resilient guy I've ever met in my life. The higher the stakes, the harder he fights -- and this guy never, ever gives up.

White told a story about when he was on vacation recently, and Trump called him to ask to speak at the RNC:

So two weeks ago, I got a call from President Trump, asking me if I'd be willing to speak tonight. As usual, there was no pressure, no demands, he asked me as a friend and of course, I said yes. 

Then after I accepted his offer, he sent me a text message, and I just want to read to you a little piece of what President Trump wrote to me: "Dana, I'm so honored that you will be doing the introduction at the National Republican Convention. Think of it as the biggest fight you ever had, a fight for our country and even the world. I only wish you didn't have to interrupt you family trip. But I hope they understand. They love you, and they know how important this is."

Now think about this: This man is running for the President of the United States. He’s fighting for the future of this country, and he’s concerned about interrupting my family trip.

Here is what White had to say about why Trump is running for president again:

Why else would he put himself through everything he’s dealt with just to get back here? We all know he doesn’t need this. This guy’s got a great life, he has a beautiful family, and he has achieved everything that you can possibly achieve in life. 

I know President Trump is literally putting his life on the line for something bigger than himself, and he’s willing to risk it all because he loves this country, and I know he wants what’s best for the American people — ALL American people.

The UFC president continued:

The choice is clear ... I'm not telling you what choice to make. And I'm not telling you what to think. I'm telling you what I know. I know America needs a strong leader. And the world needs a strong America. I know Donald J. Trump is the best choice. The President of the United States.

The RNC crowd was electric when White announced Trump coming to the stage:

As the Democrats are not sure who the Democrat nominee is going to be, the GOP is united behind Trump-Vance and is ready to come out in droves and win the presidency, as well as hold their majority in the House and win back the majority in the Senate.
