RFK Jr. on being Trump's VP: "VP is the worst job in Washington."
00:00:00.000 | I just want to make sure I heard it properly.
00:00:01.680 | When Kelly called you, was it to be the V.P. on the Trump ticket?
00:00:06.200 | Was that asked?
00:00:07.200 | And did you consider it?
00:00:08.200 | And why did you say no to that, but then said yes to this?
00:00:11.720 | About three hours after the shooting in Butler, I got a call from him and he asked me if I
00:00:19.480 | was still interested in specifically in the V.P. slot.
00:00:23.960 | And I said, no, I had no interest in being vice president.
00:00:27.320 | I grew up in politics and vice president is the worst job in Washington.
00:00:31.360 | You have no budget.
00:00:32.360 | You have no staff except what your budget actually all comes to the White House.
00:00:36.800 | If you do something that offends the president, he can literally, you know, he can take away
00:00:41.880 | your plane.
00:00:42.880 | He can take away your staff and he can essentially put you under house arrest.
00:00:47.600 | And you know, I have very strong views on issues.
00:00:50.560 | And I felt like if I took that job, I'd be on house arrest probably on day three.
