Dana White offered press secretary job by President Trump

President Donald Trump offered UFC CEO Dana White the job of press secretary on Saturday.

 “I am pleased to announce that the Great Dana White, a violent Fighter and Warrior, has been offered the job of Press Secretary of the United States,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The president wants White to bring along several current and retired UFC fighters as assistants to fight against the ‘lunatic left.’

“I have requested that he bring with him assistants, even though some are not from our Country, of Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes, and Kayla Harris (Harrison).”

“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!” he added.

It’s unclear whether White accepted the position. The UFC president shared an image of himself at the White House press briefing room podium on his Instagram story with the caption, “On to the next chapter”

Trump and White have shared a friendship for more than two decades. Trump’s properties hosted UFC events in the early 2000s and the two have remained close ever since. White spoke at the Republican National Convention and on Trump’s behalf at campaign events. Trump, an avid fight fan, has attended several UFC events. In June, on Trump’s 80th birthday, UFC Freedom 250 took place on the White House lawn.
