Can Ben Carson Get Any Worse?

Former GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson said while he wished there was a “path” for him to endorse another candidate, he’s anticipating a role in Republican Donald Trump’s possible administration.

Carson said in a Monday interview with Newsmax that after weighing his options, endorsing Trump made the most “practical” sense.

“I have to look at what is practical,” Carson told host Steve Malzberg.

Later in the interview, Carson implied Trump had promised him a role in his administration.

“[Trump] will surround himself with very good people,” the retired neurosurgeon said.

“And will one of them be Dr. Ben Carson?” Malzberg asked.

“I will be doing things as well, yeah,” Carson responded.

When pressed whether the role would be “in the administration,” Carson said it would be “certainly in an advisory capacity.”


“That’s been determined? When you sat down with him that was discussed?” Malzberg asked.

“Yes,” Carson said.
