Last week, the Democratic National Convention was broadcast live over the internet from around the nation. The event featured a host of political speakers, including former presidents, as well as celebrities like Eva Longoria, Tracy Ellis Ross, Kerry Washington, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. This week, Republicans are taking center stage with their own list of political and public figures. Alongside many current cabinet members and conservative notables were reports of a few not quite so politically notable names—like former NFL star (and brief MMA fighter) Heschel Walker, as well as fellow former NFL players Jack Brewer and Burgess Owens.
The list of 2020 RNC speakers also includes none other than UFC president Dana White.
