Viral video shows Trump appear to ignore his grandson at UFC match

A viral video posted online appears to showDonald Trump ignoring his grandson at an Ultimate Fighting Championship match on Saturday night.

The footage, which cuts several times between different angles, was shared on X and shows Mr Trump shaking hands with people at the match, as well as hugging his daughter, Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner.

The parents were standing alongside their son, which outlets have reported was 10-year-old Joseph.

As the former president moves to greet people in the crowd, Ivanka Trump appears to touch her son’s back while reaching for something near a table.
