US President Donald Trump made an unusual job proposal for UFC President Dana White, one of the well-known names in the sports world. In a post on his Truth Social account, Trump announced that he had offered White the position of White House Press Secretary.
In his post, Trump described White as “a violent fighter and warrior” and asked him to accept the job. The US President also listed notable names for the team that would work alongside White.
Dana White HE ALSO WANTED THE STARS OF THE FIGHTING WORLD ON THE TEAM Trump named Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes, and Kayla Harrison among those he wanted to see as assistants alongside Dana White.
Noting that some of these names are not US citizens, Trump stated that they were needed to defend his country against the group he described as the “Crazy Left.”
In his post, Trump said, “Dana will be a press secretary unlike any seen before. Dana, please accept this job!”
THE CLOSE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRUMP AND DANA WHITE UFC President Dana White has long been known for his close relationship with Donald Trump. Trump attended UFC events and was photographed with White, and White openly expressed his support for Trump.
Trump’s latest post was seen as a striking move suggesting that this closeness could extend to a White House role.
However, there are also comments that the post may have been made in a humorous tone. So far, there is no verified statement that Dana White accepted the offer or that an official appointment process has begun.
THE LAST SPOKESPERSON LASTED ONLY 5 DAYS Trump’s latest press secretary, Katie Zacharia, was able to stay in her post for only 5 days and left her position on October 16. Zacharia’s short tenure, after she became the target of criticism following her first press conference, once again showed how turbulent the White House press secretary’s seat is.
