Ben Carson said Tuesday that he’s been offered several jobs in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration including helming the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
"I would say that was one of the offers that is on the table," Carson said on Fox News's "Your World with Neil Cavuto."
“You know, there have been so many promises made over the last several decades and nothing has been, so it certainly is something that has been a long-term interest of mine and I’ll be thinking and praying about it seriously over the holiday.”
Trump indicated earlier on Tuesday that Carson is a top contender for HUD secretary.
“I am seriously considering Dr. Ben Carson as the head of HUD. I've gotten to know him well--he's a greatly talented person who loves people!” Trump tweeted.
