Donald Trump and Dana White at the White House
President Trump has an idea on who should be the next press secretary.
Back in August, longtime press secretary Karoline Leavitt stepped down, and the Trump administration has struggled to fill her spot.
Just last month, Trump fired Katie Zacharia as press secretary just five days after hiring her.
On Saturday, Trump announced that White had been offered the job of press secretary of the United States.
“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. 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. 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! President DONALD J. TRUMP”
