Dana White rejects White House press secretary job


US President Donald Trump has backtracked on an offer for UFC President Dana White to become the new White House press secretary, saying he “was kidding”.

In a Truth Social post on Saturday President Trump proposed the appointment, adding “Dana, please take the job!”

A day later Trump clarified to the media that the invitation was “just a little fun”.

In front of reporters, Trump again asked White if he would like to take the job, with White responding, “I do not want to be in politics”.

The vacancy for White House press secretary has been open since mid-October, when Katie Zacharia quit less than five days into the job.
