Trump asked UFC chief Dana White to be the White House spokesperson

Donald Trump has nominated Dana White, CEO of UFC, as the White House press secretary, asking him to bring along some fighters as assistants. White, a longtime friend of Trump, played a significant role in promoting UFC events at the White House. The previous press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, resigned in late August, and her successor, Katie Zacharia, was dismissed shortly after her appointment following a problematic press conference.
