The key figures of the sports world come out during Trump's inauguration.

Numerous professional athletes, both active and inactive, publicly supported Donald Trump during his victory over Vice President Kamala Harris in the presidential election.

On Monday, some athletes were present in Washington for Trump's inauguration as the 47th president of the United States.

The athletes below braved the frigid temps in D.C. to support the president.

Jake & Logan Paul

Over the past few years, the Paul brothers have been ardent supporters of Trump. Trump made an appearance on Logan Paul's podcast, "IMPAULSIVE," in June while campaigning. Jake Paul endorsed Trump for president in October and rejoiced after the election results were announced.

Jake Paul wrote on X that any American who doesn't support Trump after the speech is unpatriotic and doesn't care about the country's well-being.

Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor was spotted sitting behind Jake and Logan Paul on a bus heading to the inauguration events. McGregor had been in D.C. all weekend and took pictures with some of Trump's Cabinet nominees.

McGregor spoke to reporters on the red carpet at the inaugural ball.

"Being here is amazing. I'm extremely excited and optimistic about the future," McGregor stated. "The United States is doing well, and I was here during the last Donald Trump presidency in 2016. The energy and response have changed significantly, which is a testament to his leadership and handling of himself since then."

Dana White

Dana White, UFC president and longtime supporter of Trump, was seen with his wife in the Capitol Rotunda after speaking at Trump's rally at the Capital One Arena on Sunday night.

"The people have spoken loudly and clearly. America wants President Trump back in the White House. Consider this: Triumphing in this election, despite everything that has transpired in the past few years, is an astounding accomplishment and an awe-inspiring comeback tale," he remarked.

"President Trump faced numerous challenges, including the media, prosecutors, and assassins, but he persevered and emerged victorious."

Miriam Adelson

The largest political donation of any owner in the NBA, NFL, MLB, or WNBA was made by Miriam Adelson, the majority owner of the Dallas Mavericks, who was present at the inauguration. The Adelson family donated $100 million to her Preserve America political action committee supporting Trump's presidential campaign, as reported by Front Office Sports.

In December 2023, Mark Cuban sold a majority interest in the Mavericks to her.

Wayne Gretzky

Before the festivities began at the inauguration, NHL legend Wayne Gretzky was seen tucked away near White and Adelson.

On Christmas Day, Trump urged Canadian citizens to encourage Gretzky to become the next prime minister.

Gretzky was approached by Trump about becoming the governor of Canada amidst joking about the country joining the U.S.
