We're joined by the Vek Ramaswami of course a former presidential candidate also now the host of a new podcast called Truth

available wherever you get your podcast. The Vek is our first time speaking I believe and thanks so much for joining us.

Yeah, it's good to finally talk to you.

Follow a lot of your commentary for especially over the last year, but I appreciate that.

First time we're sitting that. I appreciate that.

Yeah, absolutely.

So let me just start with a question you've gotten a million times, I'm sure, and are tired of.

It's always a good place to start.

Obviously, there's been a lot of speculation that you could be on the list for

Vice President and the Trump administration there was a

reporting a couple months ago that you're being considered instead for a position in

the cabinet. Do you think you'll land somewhere in the Trump administration potentially? I mean look my top focus is making sure he wins the election and I think that Republicans win up and down the ballot so we can actually implement the agenda.

But if he is successfully elected and I'm doing everything on my power at this point to make sure that he is,

then I hope to have a big impact in some way or other and President Trump and I have built a pretty close

relationship especially over the last several months after I dropped out of the race

but even we had known each other for years before that and I'm I'm confident his second term can actually be even more successful in the first and I'm going to look at however I can have the biggest possible impact on this country and so we've got some great conversations but I think the focus right now is not to put the cart before the horse

actually make sure that we're successful in winning the election. I personally believe that we're actually at risk of some complacency right now. You got a lot of people who

are looking at the polls and celebrating and patting ourselves on the back. I

actually think the real race has not even yet begun in the sense that you know you look at the first presidential debate

that's on June 27th I think it is that's the earliest ever presidential debate ever held it's

before even the Democratic National Convention that That's not an accident.

I think that is the final audition
