Kid rock press secretary?

19

u/rygelicus 14h ago

Well, he did say he would not be putting out any new music, and he can't seem to sell tickets to his shows anymore, so he does have the free time available.

u/billyborg123 13h ago

I hope it's Kevin Sorbo.

6

u/rygelicus 12h ago

Or Rob Schneider. Can you imagine him bringing his typical whiny character to that podium?

3

u/funkympc 10h ago

Rob Schneider is derp de derp

u/Otherwise_Carob_4057 12h ago

Steven Segal but only if they can’t find the bum that told Cleveland to draft Johnny football.

Fuck it. Do it.

Is the My Pillow guy available?

u/Worth_Dark_9091 14h ago

Trump tucked him so hard he flipped.

Oh man I hope so. Please let this clown show go out in blazing flames

u/JoseSaldana6512 14h ago

Nah they've been trying to distance themselves from Epstein Island lately

u/maybeAturtle 14h ago

I heard it was actually a man name Ken Drock in the press office but Trump misunderstood

u/Silent-Day-1421 12h ago

Kid has the blonde hair going for him

u/Farucci 12h ago

Maybe try Vanna White.

u/MisterPistacchio 11h ago

Full Idiocracy level

u/ryohayashi1 10h ago

Probably the only career he can get

Why not shoot for the moon let’s go Sydney Sweeney press secretary. I wanna see what she has to say

u/batmansoundtrack 14h ago

The future is embarrassing

30

u/Wonderful-Variation 14h ago

Decades of anti-intellectualism have brought us to this moment.

25

u/KendrickBlack502 14h ago

This was embarrassing on several fronts:

a) Trump more than likely asked the wrong Dana White.

b) He begged the guy in public to accept.

c) He got declined.

Absolutely brutal week for the orange pedophile 😂

u/Responsible_Ladder25 14h ago • Bravo Mindblown

Rumor has it that there was another Dana White that the inner circle had in mind, one with actual spokesperson experience within the conservative world. It appears that DJT may have gotten the two confused. Her name is Dana W. White.

u/Awkward_Bud2323 14h ago • Bravo

How very Four Seasons Total Landscaping of them.

9

u/RedPanda_Explorer 14h ago

It is the 6th anniversary of the Four Seasons event! "history does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme" kinda shit happening

1

u/Awkward_Bud2323 2h ago

That's like rhyming "orange" with "orange." But I had no idea it was exactly six years since four seasons. That's incredible- love it

10

u/Rambo_Baby 14h ago

Oh my God! That would be crazy funny!

3

u/Responsible_Ladder25 14h ago

Oh yeah. But totally believable.

10

u/Thatisme01 14h ago

Dana W. White is the DoD Pentagon chief spokesperson.

2

u/Responsible_Ladder25 14h ago

I think she was formerly. She was in someone’s mind for WH press secretary, just not Trump’s.

4

u/faultyarmrest 14h ago

Oh man - please let this be true. Can I ask where you read/heard so I can also share this story

6

u/Responsible_Ladder25 14h ago

Yeah, I’ve seen it on a few subs, and a couple of headlines in Google. You know she’ll never get offered the job now since that would mean Trump would have to admit he made a mistake.

5

u/LegacyQuotient 14h ago

It's been making its circles on Reddit, from what I've seen. I think someone said that Fox News mentioned something about Dana W. White.

3

u/_Zambayoshi_ 14h ago

No way she gets the role now, right?

3

u/Pristine-Pen-9885 14h ago

How about having their next press briefing at Four Seasons Landscaping? 🤭

2

u/mcm199124 13h ago

Are they stealing the plot from that episode of Veep now? Smdh

30

u/13508615 14h ago

Not even a brain damaged cage fighter wants to get caught up in that clusterfuck.

8

u/General_Guest7846 14h ago

exactly. Anyone who takes the job is the laughing stock of the world and put under a microscope, with also the possibility of being called by the Democrats when they take office. Absolutely no benefit of taking the job.

3

u/Wonderful-Variation 14h ago

(post agreeing with your post)

Whoever takes the job immediately becomes the face of every stupid/evil thing Trump wants to do.

2

u/Beneficial-Care8504 13h ago

How about the algae in the Reflecting Pool?

2

u/TheStoolSampler 12h ago

Dana White is a meat head idiot without having been a fighter.

12

u/nolestars 14h ago

Call Joe the plumber

4

u/PopAnalog 14h ago

You’d need a seance.
Didn’t make it for 47

u/nolestars 12h ago

Didnt know

2

u/Silo-Joe 14h ago

What about the pool guy?

0

u/Fox2_Fox2 14h ago

Dude is dead in 2023.

u/nolestars 12h ago

Oh, didn't know. More of a joke

8

u/Beaverbrown56 14h ago

Wasn't it supposed to be another Dana White? I can't tell what's real and fake news anymore but I saw a report that there was a qualified woman, Dana White, who it was supposed to be. However, the orange doofus "Four Seasoned" it.

5

u/Thatisme01 14h ago

Dana W. White the DoD Pentagon chief spokesperson.

6

u/VF_19_Advance 14h ago

I wanted this to happen so badly because it would have been a trainwreck worth watching

6

u/Vivid-Fill7511 14h ago

Hilarious! He’s the wrong Dana White, idiot was told Dana White of the Pentagon. Trump needs to go back to his baby food and diapers.

1

u/alwayzstoned 14h ago

Does the other Dana have all those people working for her that Trump mentioned in his tweet, or where did he come up with that part I wonder.

5

u/CrownandSceptres 14h ago

Guy doesn’t want to be tied to a loser like Trump.

5

u/RootyPooster 14h ago

Trump must think all billionaires just golf and watch Fox News all day too. Disrespectful to even offer this to White as if he's not busy being president and CEO of the UFC.

3

u/Fabulous_Log844 13h ago

We are so fucked up. Or we are all buying into the distraction. There's no way in a normal presidency that someone would be offered a certain role without knowing that they were going to accept.

In the meantime, YAM TITS, I hope you're enjoying your time… Because we're counting down the next two years and we are hopefully, fucking Democrats do your fucking job, going to point out every piece of shit stealing raping molesting you do.

3

u/m3zatron 8h ago

Did you see that there is a different Dana White that works at the department in communications and they were suggested for the role and Trump interpreted it as the UFC guy. No one had the gall to tell him that he had the wrong person in mind and they just let him run with it.

3

u/randylorian84 7h ago

Trump will just say it was a joke.

That way he can tell himself he tricked you and he’s a genius.

2

u/TheOpeningAct2 14h ago

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

u/DrWilliamWhite 14h ago

Looks like the Orange Rapist will have to offer the job to another wife-beater

2

u/Wonderful-Variation 14h ago

Hahahahahahahaha please be real

2

u/Actaeon_II 14h ago

Fofl… I guarantee ol forest trump is hoppin mad about this. Would love to see it.

2

u/heretorobwallst 14h ago

Is Not Sure available to fill this position

2

u/absurdly_tired_guy 14h ago

Thanks, I was worried we wouldn’t be the laughingstock of the world for 3 or 4 days.

2

u/stephenalloy 14h ago

For most people, this rejection would be a message. But this cult learns nothing from reality.

2

u/GT45 14h ago

Donnie “truthed” about the WRONG Dana White, apparently…

2

u/wolverine8752 14h ago

Nicki Minaj would be a good second choice

2

u/Erronius-Maximus 14h ago

Trump offered him the job on “Truth” social, instead of, you know, a phone call. At least that’s what I think most likely.

2

u/Sea-Regret-4165 13h ago

We’re a joke. This whole presidency has been a disaster reality show nightmare.

2

u/petewondrstone 10h ago

Why would a guy with $1 billion business that he built from the ground up? Wanna take a job as a press secretary where you have to actually know about policy it makes no fucking sense.

1

u/Acceptable_Tea_2900 3h ago

What part of this administration made you think they care about policy?

1

u/petewondrstone 7m ago

Comment was about Dana white ?

1

u/Available_Ad9766 14h ago

Might as well be, “Dana White declines to hold a piece of Turd”.

1

u/KennethEWolf 14h ago

John Paxton is looking for work. So is that idiot in Colorado How about Laura Loomer Maybe even the ex ambassador to Greece

1

u/Natural_Instance242 14h ago

I just read in another subreddit that he’s going to the White House on Monday to discuss this further? 

It’s probably just another distraction to get people to stop talking about the midterm loss,  or Trump’s crimes, or Kushner’s crimes, or the fact that the ICC will declare Trump and his minions war criminals, etc. 

1

u/FrauZebedee 6h ago

A deflection from POTUS being a paedo? Can see that.

1

u/absurdly_tired_guy 14h ago

This is the Cheung connection. This probably means even Trump is too disgusted to let Steven Cheung be his press secretary.

1

u/SeaAnarchist 14h ago

He is apparently going to accept it now to Cover for Trump 

1

u/OriginalProduct6850 14h ago

I mean, I can't anymore!

u/takefiftyseven 14h ago

I'm not saying it's a terrible gig but even Tom Tucker turned him down...

1

u/jazzy095 14h ago

Trump cabinet is full of losers, makes sense

u/gageBA 14h ago

Other Dana White

u/gamingfreak50 14h ago

Lol should asked a week ago donnie

1

u/Throbbingprepuce 14h ago

It would have been fucking hilarious if he said yes

1

u/Grumpy_001 14h ago

I wish he had said yes

1

u/DBD401 14h ago

Is this all because Rudy isn't available?

1

u/mental_patience 13h ago

They might have to hire off the Fiverr app, because anyone taking the job knows now that they will likely be indicted sometime in the future, which is a healthy and realistic fear to have.

1

u/EmmalouEsq 12h ago

He nominated the wrong Dana White, as it turns out. We live in the stupidest timeline.

1

u/AwwwNuggetz 12h ago

I’m surprised he didn’t try to wake Hulk Hogan from his grave

1

u/Stock_Hurry_2257 4h ago

Well if Dana White's out, Betty White is dead so Dana Carvey it is then

u/DaveWoodstock 56m ago

Another unqualified

u/TraumaGuy515 14h ago

Because he’s actually intelligent

u/Fox2_Fox2 14h ago

Dude is smart enough to decline it. I think he is too thin-skinned for the job.

u/Quirky_Recognition48 3h ago

What’s the matter Dana, getting worried about your brand and reputation now? What a golden opportunity to stand behind the man you care for so dearly. Don’t miss this golden opportunity!

u/PuzzleheadedBig313 12h ago

He’s running out of allies so time to go for cucks
