Trump’s pathetic Dana White gambit could not mask his midterm humiliation | Howard Bryant

Following a significant Republican defeat in the midterm elections, Donald Trump offered the position of White House press secretary to UFC CEO Dana White, a move widely seen as an attempt to distract from the political fallout. Critics and commentators suggested Trump may have confused UFC's Dana White with a former Heritage Foundation staffer of the same name. Trump subsequently claimed the offer was a joke, though the incident was broadly interpreted as reflecting the disorder surrounding his post-midterm position.
