As President-elect Donald Trump continues to fill out cabinet positions ahead of taking office in January, don’t expect Dana White’s name to pop up as a potential candidate for any role.
Despite serving as one of Trump’s biggest supporters during the 2024 election campaign and even speaking at his celebration after winning a second term in office, the UFC CEO says he has no interest when it comes to politics. White has said similar in the past when it came to potential political aspirations but that hasn’t changed just because Trump is reclaiming the presidency in a matter of weeks.
“I’m in the fight business, which is the dirtiest, nastiest business,” White said when speaking to the Sports Business Journal. “We all hate each other and we’re all fighting everyday.
“There is nothing dirtier than politics. It’s disgusting. It’s gross. I want nothing to do with it.”
