No worse than LBJ’s demolition derby arena or Carter’s Tractor-Pull-a-Palooza, except for the fact that those are totally made up and never occurred because why the hell would they ever have???
To be honest, neither of those sound nearly as tacky or gauche as this does to me, something about it being UFC/MMA or if it were boxing during it’s peak or even pro wrestling make it this gross mix of gladiatorial combat, organized crime, and carny shit that really shouldn’t be anywhere near the President. Its not wrong to enjoy any of those as entertainment even if someone is currently the President, hell I love pro wrestling when there good storylines and characters, I’m not what you would normally call a classy person. But this gives me a very particular ‘ick’ and I’m not quite sure how to describe it.
I mean he literally whipped it out in front of journalists and diplomats as a ritualistic display. Let’s not gloss over the shitty aspects of former presidents just to compare them to this president full of shitty aspects.
I don’t disagree with you in any way, however, I would pay more money than I’m willing to admit to watch a literal presidential dick measuring contest. I think we all know who would likely place last, but even if he didn’t, I would enjoy his reaction to losing for the rest of my days with great relish because he couldn’t possibly be first and that’s he would care about.
And I’m pretty much only able to confidently hope this because we all know that apparently LBJ had a hog, and I appreciates that about him, even though yeah fuck him for the war crimes.

At least tractor pulls have cool physics behind them: https://youtube.com/watch?v=VZ6_8WJ3mh8
I went to Jimmy Carter’s Tactor-Pull-a-Palooza and all I got was this stupid shirt.
I went to Carter’s Pull-a-Palooza but I had to sell my peanut farm
I heard they gave away Billy Beer for free!!!
No, They gave Billy away! They charged for the beer.

LBJ didn’t have to resort to tough guy tropes and ritualized masculinity displays to convince people he had the biggest dick in the room.

Things I learned from Red White and Royal Blue.
You’re telling me the guy that escalated the Vietnam War was a piece of shit?!?
The kind of guy that names his dick “Jumbo”

His masculinity displays were very, very literal!
