Jeb Would Not Consider VP Post for a President Trump

 

By    |   Saturday, 20 February 2016 08:00 PM EST

Jeb Bush, sometimes criticized for being hesitant and tepid on the GOP presidential campaign trail, is decisive on at least one point: joining a Donald Trump presidential ticket.

"Governor, would you consider being Donald Trump’s vice president?" Bush was asked at a campaign stop.

"No," the former Florida governor instantly shot back, eliciting laughter from supporters, including South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham.

The smiling Bush quickly added: "Let's be clear: I don't think he'd ask me either."

The light-hearted moment of truth was posted on YouTube, and first reported by Mediaite.
