Dana White: 'This is the greatest country on earth. And we should be defending it, fighting for our freedom, every one of us.'

Dana White, the outspoken head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, is making headlines for a pro-America rant he delivered on the “Full Send Podcast."

What are the details?

While the podcast interview posted on YouTube last week covered a variety of subjects, White turned heads when he was asked about his opinion that the younger generation coming up is weak.

White acknowledged that every generation typically believes that the one coming after it is "soft," but he was quick to add that the current generation is "next-level."

"There's no respect for the police any more, there's no respect for the military, there's no respect for our country, our freedom, our way of life that we have here," White said.

He then lit into Americans who threaten to leave the country if things don't go their way politically — and gave them a brutal reality check:

You can sit around and ... nitpick and talk about things that are wrong with the United States. Let me tell you something: I'm gonna tell f***ing your generation, my generation, everybody's generation — this is it. If this falls, there's no other f***ing place to go. So all these f***ing people that are like, 'Oh, God, if President Trump wins, I'm f***ing leaving the country.' They all say it! They all say it! Nobody f***ing does it. Where you gonna go? Nowhere. All these other f***ing places that you think are f***ing cool and you think are so f***ing great, when the s**t hits the fan, you find out who’s who and what’s what. ... Gang, this is it. So all the people ... marching and crying and protesting ... this is the greatest country on earth. And we should be defending it, fighting for our freedom, every one of us. ... Everybody’s afraid to stand up. Everybody’s afraid to be pro-American. ... Some of these other countries ... the people who live there are proud of where they come from. They carry their flag; they stand up. ... You talk about people coming over the border from Mexico for a better life in America, right? Show me a Mexican that doesn’t love his country and isn’t proud to be a Mexican. Wake up. Wake up. This is the greatest country …

White then wondered rhetorically, "So if we go to war right now, are you confident in this generation that we have right now that these guys are gonna go out and storm some beach somewhere?" He added that "there’s a small handful of people — most of them probably down around the Bible belt and down South — that’ll actually stand up and fight for this country right now. It’s scary."
