UFC President Dana White was reportedly not interested in serving as White House press secretary under President Donald Trump, according to a report from The Comeback. The story, published on November 9, 2026, indicates White does not want the position despite his long-standing relationship with Trump.
White has been a visible supporter of Trump and has appeared at campaign events, but the report suggests he has no desire to leave his role leading the mixed martial arts promotion for a political appointment. The UFC president has built the organization into a global sports enterprise since purchasing it in 2001.
