<p>Masvidal, 38, has been known as a staunch conservative and a MAGA supporter. A week before his final fight in Miami, he posted a video to Twitter to condemn President Trump’s indictment by New York DA Alvin Bragg as an act straight out of a “communist playbook.” He tweeted an American flag with “Make America great again” to convey his message.</p>
