The US President requested that White bring several fighters as assistants to help defend the administration against the Lunatic Left.
US President Donald Trump has offered the role of White House press secretary to Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) CEO Dana White, according to reports by The Economic Times, Al Jazeera and Deccan Herald. In a post on Truth Social on Saturday, Trump described White as a violent fighter and warrior.
Trump requested that White bring several assistants to the White House, including fighters who are not US citizens. The President listed six current or former UFC titleholders to join the team: Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes, and Kayla Harris.
The President stated that these individuals would be required to defend the administration against what he termed the Lunatic Left. Trump concluded his post by asking White to take the job.
Speaking at a conference in London on Saturday, White said he would meet Trump at the White House on Monday to discuss the offer, according to Al Jazeera. However, Deccan Herald reported that White declined the position, citing a source familiar with the matter.
The press secretary position has been vacant since Katie Zacharia was removed from the role last month after five days. Zacharia had succeeded Karoline Leavitt, who left the post at the end of August.
