Trump Posts AI Videos Of Dana White As Press Secretary—Despite Saying He Was ‘Kidding’ With Job Offer
The day after President Donald Trump said he was “only joking” by asking Dana White to serve as press secretary, he posted AI-generated videos of the UFC chief executive delivering press briefings on Truth Social.
U.S. President Donald Trump shared an AI-generated animated video on his social media platform, Truth Social, depicting UFC president Dana White conducting a hostile press briefing at the White House. The video, created by X user @DrClownPhD, featured journalists being physically confronted by mixed martial arts fighters and repeated a baseless conspiracy theory about former first lady Michelle Obama.
Despite Trump later clarifying that his suggestion about White becoming the next White House press secretary was a joke, he shared the fabricated clip. The AI-generated video portrayed journalists being tackled by animated versions of UFC fighters and questioned Trump's fitness for democracy and his pronouns. The conspiracy theory about Michelle Obama being a man also resurfaced in the video, reflecting a long-standing online rumor.
