Jake Paul Eyes White House Run

0:00On April 6th, Jake Paul is floating the idea of running for president one day. The 29-year-old YouTuber, boxer, dropped that hint during an interview on Theo Vaughn's podcast, released on April 5th. It all kicked off after Donald Trump gave him a big endorsement at a rally in Kentucky on March 11th. His business partner called it six years back, predicting Paul would end up in the White House, and now it's feeling more real than a punchline. Paul said he's weighing if he's the right guy to jump in and actually win, especially against weak opponents. Fans and critics are buzzing, but Paul admits the gig's brutal. It choose up your life and everyone close to you. He shouted out Trump's non-stop energy at 79, calling him a legend, but stressed he really doesn't want the target on his back, even joking, about assassination risks. Paul's eyeing a political star in Northern Puerto Rico, where he owns a $20 million mansion called Taj Mahpal. He figured Charlie Kirk, assassinated at 31 last September at Utah Valley University, was next up for the job since politics was his real hustle.
