Huckabee: I was offered a Cabinet position but it wasn’t ‘the right fit’

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said Friday that President-elect Donald Trump offered him a Cabinet position but that it wasn’t “the right fit.”  

“We talked about a position but, you know, I’m not sure it was the right fit,” Huckabee said on Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor.” 

Huckabee wouldn’t elaborate on what position he was offered when he met with Trump on Friday.

“I would never get into the details of what we talked about or what he offered me,” he said.

But he strongly denied reports that Trump had picked him to serve as an ambassador to Israel. 

“That was not something that was even discussed,” he said.
