Trinity Audioplayer ready...Hunter Biden told podcaster and UFC commentator Joe Rogan that he’s up for fighting Donald Trump Jr. — anywhere except on the White House lawn.
The son of former President Joe Biden issued his challenge to President Trump’s oldest offspring in a long social media post explaining why he took issue with Sunday’s mixed martial arts competition coinciding with the President’s 80th birthday at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Biden confessed that he understands the appeal of the unprecedented spectacle celebrating the nation’s 250th birthday. But he doesn’t like where the heavily branded event was held.
“My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us,” he posted in a message to Rogan on X. “Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.”
“UFC Freedom 250” organizers say 7 million people tuned in to that day of fights, which featured Rogan providing commentary.
Biden likened the matches to Roman gladiator fights staged by 1st century emperors during undemocratic times.
“The President is our servant. Not our Caesar,” he added before suggesting that Rogan organize a rumble between political scions.
“Cage match between me and Don Jr.?” Biden concluded. “Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.”
Biden 56, said in a video posted in April that he’s “100 percent” willing to fight the President’s 48-year-old namesake or his younger brother Eric Trump.
A Trump Organization representative recommended at the time that Biden focus instead on staying sober and making his child support payments. Biden, who has spoken at length about overcoming drug addiction, claims to be at least $15 million in debt. He settled a 2023 suit to pay support to a child he fathered in 2018.
Trump Jr. attended Sunday’s fight. He refereed to it as “Epic stuff!!!” on X.
