President Trump is quite pleased with the giant, rollercoaster-resembling Ultimate Fighting Championship cage being built outside of the White House. So much so that he believes the \u201cquite attractive\u201d temporary structure, like Paris\u2019 iconic Eiffel Tower, should perhaps become a permanent feature. <\/span><\/p>\n

In a video posted to the president\u2019s TikTok account Wednesday, Trump suggested that the octagon taking over the White House South Lawn may \u201cnever\u201d come down, even after the UFC Freedom 250 event scheduled for June 14. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Eiffel Tower, 1889 it was built, it was supposed to be taken down immediately after the World\u2019s Fair,\u201d Trump said in the video while sitting in the Oval Office. \u201cAnd then they said, \u2018You know, we sort of like it.\u2019\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cAnd you know, we\u2019re building something in front of the White House that\u2019s quite attractive to a lot of people,\u201d he continued, referring to the UFC cage. \u201cAnd I\u2019m looking at it and maybe we\u2019ll never, ever take it down.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
