WATCH: Dana White drops 2028 hints while raving about his favorite Trump cabinet secretary

Dana White, who endorsed President Donald Trump in 2024, hinted at a potential 2028 presidential run amid growing closeness with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. White and Rubio signed a partnership between UFC and the State Department, establishing a 'sports diplomacy' initiative where UFC athletes will serve as sports ambassadors. White praised Rubio and Vice President JD Vance as possible 2028 candidates but declined to endorse either explicitly.
