For those who don’t know, a WWE Hall of Famer in Donald Trump is currently residing in the White House who is bidding for re-election in November. The McMahon Family are big fans of him and also closely associated with him. Linda McMahon works closely with the campaign and while running a Presidential Super PAC. However, the edict is that no one within the WWE isn’t allowed to speak about this, openly.
Linda McMahon’s Super PAC issued Florida with $18.5 million funding just a day before Governor Ron DeSantis announced that WWE (and any other televised event) is an essential business within Florida’s borders.
