"If these people say you had the power, wouldn't you want to?" Trump asked.

"I wouldn't want any one person to have that authority," Pence said.

"But wouldn't it almost be cool to have that power?" Trump asked.

"No," Pence said.

I'll give Pence credit for not caving - even though there's not much else to recommend him (and he continues to kiss TFG's blubbery orange ass).
