Trump says he was just kidding about making UFC’s Dana White his press secretary
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump said Sunday he was only kidding about making UFC boss Dana White his next White House press secretary after announcing on social media he had offered his close friend the job.
President Donald Trump joked on Sunday that he had only playfully suggested making UFC chief Dana White his future White House press secretary, following his announcement on social media of the offer. The statement came after his party suffered significant losses in the midterm elections on Tuesday. On Friday, Trump reshuffled his administration by replacing chief of staff Susie Wiles with Stephen Miller.
Miller, known for his role in crafting the administration's strict immigration policies, was appointed as the new chief of staff. Trump currently lacks a press secretary after briefly assigning the role to Katie Zacharia, who struggled during her stint. Michelle L. Price, from The Associated Press, reported on the incident.
