Trump says he offered UFC CEO Dana White the White House press secretary role

President Trump announced on Saturday via a Truth Social post that he has offered the vacant White House press secretary role to UFC CEO Dana White, according to CBS News. Trump stated in his post that he requested White to bring along several mixed martial arts figures. Responding to the social media post during a boxing event in London, Dana White said he was flying to Washington, D.C., to meet with Trump on Monday. Reporting from at least one media outlet suggested the post may have been tongue-in-cheek, and CBS News has reached out to the White House and UFC for additional comment.
