Trump Offers UFC CEO Dana White Position as White House Press Secretary

Palm Beach, Fla. — President Donald Trump announced that he offered Dana White, CEO of the UFC, the position of White House press secretary. Trump described White as a ‘violent Fighter and Warrior’ and urged him to accept the role.

The announcement, made via social media, included a request for White to bring several UFC fighters as aides. These include Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes, and Kayla Harris. Trump believes these fighters could defend against attacks aimed at the administration.

Trump stated, ‘We need these people to defend us against the Lunatic Left. Dana will be a Press Secretary like none other. Dana, please take the job!’ It remains unclear whether the offer is formal or a response to recent political challenges.

The White House and UFC have not responded to requests for comments. This development arises as Trump prepares for political clashes with Democrats. The announcement follows Republicans losing control of both the House and Senate in recent midterm elections.

In another recent move, Trump appointed Stephen Miller as his new chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles, who was blamed for the election defeats. Trump praised Miller, stating, ‘He’s a great fighter. He’s been with me right from the beginning.’

The position of White House press secretary has been vacant since mid-October. Katie Zacharia, Trump’s previous appointee, left after only five days. Her predecessor, Karoline Leavitt, resigned in August to focus on family.

Trump expressed defiance following initial Republican losses, asserting he would block Democratic initiatives for the next two years. On social media, Trump criticized Democrats for making ‘threats’ against his administration and Republican party members. He urged the Department of Justice to investigate these threats, calling them ‘weaponization and lawfare at another level.’

Earlier this year, White hosted an MMA cage fight on the White House South Lawn during Flag Day and Trump’s 80th birthday. Trump has a long-standing friendship with White and frequently supports the UFC.
