Those opposed to Donald Trump will just have to \”learn to love it\” according to Ric Flair, following Trump\’s re-election to President of the United States. The 78-year-old billionaire bested Democratic nominee Kamala Harris earlier this week, winning both the Electoral College and the popular vote.
On X, Flair shared his clear support for Trump and gave some advice to those not on board the Trump Train.

Flair isn\’t the only wrestling personality backing Trump, as Hulk Hogan has repeatedly endorsed the Republican party leader. Jake Hager also shared several comments supporting Trump on election night, in addition to claiming Tony Khan is a \”communist\” who threatened to fire him for supporting the President-Elect. Hager has deleted several of his tweets and has yet to provide proof of his claims.
The election news comes as a crushing blow to many in the wrestling world, with Trevor Lee saying he\’s disappointed in the U.S. for electing its first convicted felon President. Mick Foley and Dave Bautista had endorsed Harris ahead of this year\’s election, while Dwayne \’The Rock\’ Johnson endorsed the Biden/Harris ticket that defeated Trump and then-Vice President Mike Pence in 2020.
Clearly, this election didn\’t go the way many had hoped, though Flair, Trump, and others in wrestling could not be happier. It remains to be seen what awaits the United States in Trump\’s second term, which will see Linda McMahon play a crucial role in the transition.
