Trump Calls Dana White Press Secretary Offer a Joke, Confirms Monday White House Visit
Donald Trump says his offer to UFC boss Dana White for White House press secretary was a joke, while confirming White's Monday visit to the White House.
POLICY WIRE — West Palm Beach, United States — Former president Donald Trump told reporters on Sunday that his earlier offer to UFC chief Dana White to become White House press secretary was made in jest.
Trump emphasized that he was “only kidding,” reinforcing that the proposal was not a genuine job offer.
He also said that White is scheduled to travel to Washington on Monday for a planned visit to the White House.
Earlier, White posted an AI‑generated image depicting himself behind the press secretary podium, a visual that amplified speculation about the alleged role.
The clarification arrived a day after White responded to the claim, and Trump’s remarks aimed to quiet the lingering media chatter.
