CT native Dana White turns down Trump's press secretary job: 'I do not want to be in politics'
"I have zero political aspirations," the Manchester native said during a news conference with President Trump.
Dana White, the CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, declined an offer to serve as President Donald Trump's press secretary. The offer came after Trump jokingly suggested the role in a social media post, followed by a cartoon video depicting White in the position. White, a Connecticut native and close friend of Trump, stated he has no political aspirations and expressed a desire to stay away from politics.
Despite Trump's initial offer and subsequent clarification that it was all in jest, White firmly declined the position, emphasizing his commitment to avoiding involvement in politics.
