In an unexpected move, President Trump held a last-minute press briefing on Monday. UFC CEO Dana White joined him, and Trump humorously warned journalists that White would “beat the hell out of you.” Over the weekend, Trump had jokingly mentioned White as a potential candidate for the position of White House press secretary.
Taking the lectern, White joked, “I’ve always wanted to do this. Who has the first question?” However, he made it clear that he held no political ambitions and was not planning to take on the role of Trump’s spokesman.
Trump remarked jovially about White, saying, “He’s going to beat the hell out of you,” in reference to the journalists present.
During the session, White addressed a playful inquiry about whether Trump could defeat former President Joe Biden in a hypothetical Octagon match. White suggested it “would be very bad” for Biden in that scenario.
Trump noted that he mentioned White as a potential press secretary in jest, due to what he described as “a very bad press day.”
