That’s what she did in 2012, when she was against both candidates. “I just picked any third party because I thought if more people voted for third parties then they’d have to take third parties seriously.” Last year, Donald Trump had implied that Rousey liked him as a candidate, but she eventually [shut that down](http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/19/politics/fact-check-donald-trump-chris-cuomo-cnn-interview/index.html). _Read next:_ [_Ronda Rousey Reveals What It Really Means To Be a Champion_](http://time.com/4079952/ronda-rousey-self-magazine-badass/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/"},"headline":"Ronda Rousey Just Revealed Who She's Backing for President","datePublished":"2015-11-10T18:28:02.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:47:57.984Z","description":"She's 'feeling the Bern'","url":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0d80c938fd6c9e6c/69886399cf40a824b7c3fb24/ronda-rousey3.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0d80c938fd6c9e6c/69886399cf40a824b7c3fb24/ronda-rousey3.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"UFC Go Big Launch Event","caption":"UFC Go Big Launch Event","creditText":"Josh Hedges—Zuffa LLC/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/","name":"Ronda Rousey Just Revealed Who She's Backing for President"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Ronda Rousey Fights Bethe Correia At UFC 190","description":"Ronda Rousey Fights Bethe Correia At UFC 190","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/zJhkTwVI/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-08-02T18:04:27.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/zJhkTwVI.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/","duration":"PT41S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4106719/ronda-rousey-endorses-bernie-sanders/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
