US President Donald Trump has offered Dana White, CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the position of White House press secretary. The offer was made on Saturday, according to multiple reports. Trump wrote on Truth Social that he has requested White to bring assistants, though some are not from the United States.
Dana White has reportedly declined the offer. A source familiar with the situation told CNN that White, who is known for his leadership in the UFC, has refused the position. The decision comes after Trump announced the offer earlier in the day.
The move is seen as unconventional, even for Trump, who has often defied traditional political norms. White, a longtime friend of Trump, has not confirmed whether he will accept the role. The White House has not officially commented on the offer.
This proposal follows a series of actions by Trump, including ordering the Justice Department to investigate Democrats seeking impeachment. The president has also called for criminal probes into Democrats, citing alleged extortion.
Trump’s offer to White reflects his tendency to seek unconventional allies and strategies. The UFC CEO has not publicly responded to the offer, and it remains unclear whether the proposal will proceed. The situation highlights the ongoing political tensions as Trump faces scrutiny over his administration’s actions.
