Dana White Flying to Washington After Trump Suggests White House Press Secretary Role

Dana White Flying to Washington After Trump Suggests White House Press Secretary Role
World Sports · 12:05:50 - Tuesday, 10 November 2026

UFC President Dana White is traveling to Washington, D.C., after former President Donald Trump floated the idea of White serving as White House press secretary. White posted an image of himself at the White House press briefing podium on social media, indicating he is scheduled to meet with Trump on Monday.

The meeting comes after Trump publicly suggested White for the press secretary position, though no formal offer has been announced. White, a longtime Trump supporter, has not commented on whether he would accept such a role.

White has led the Ultimate Fighting Championship since 2001, building it into a global sports enterprise. His potential move into politics would mark a significant shift from sports promotion to government communications.
