Ben Shapiro Once Used Conor McGregor To Criticize Donald Trump’s Opponent Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump had previously butted heads when they ran for the Presidential elections. However, American political commentator Ben Shapiro had taken a certain dig at Clinton. In the process, he used the name of UFC star Conor McGregor.

While speaking about Trump, Hillary Clinton had reportedly said, “If I Had Won, I Would Have Been Seen As A Genius”.

In response to this, Ben Shapiro Tweeted, “And if I beat Conor McGregor in a UFC fight, I would be seen as an amazing fighter”.
