Honored to be here. God Bless America," he wrote. "Any American who isn’t in support of Trump after this speech simply hates America and doesn’t want what’s best for this country and the world," he added.   Paul was in Washington, D.C., with his brother Logan and UFC star Conor McGregor. He posted a photo of the group on X as well. TRUMP VOWS 'NEW ERA OF NATIONAL SUCCESS,' SAYS AMERICA'S 'DECLINE IS OVER' IN INAUGURAL ADDRESS  The boxer had been adamant that God "stepped in and saved" Trump from the July 13 assassination attempt, and said it was a sign to bring him back into office. "And I'm not even gonna say, like, it's Democrat-Republican, what does it matter? It's the people who are running the government now, the path that they were leading us to was gonna be catastrophic and terrible," he said in July.&nbsp;  "And I think God really intervened, like, ‘we need this guy right now. Everyone needs to flip sides. We can't have a close election – we need a landslide. We need this guy to come back in and make America great again.’"  CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Dana White, Miriam Adelson and Wayne Gretzky were the other sports figures seen in the audience at the inauguration.
